vWorkspace Use Case Scenarios

The Quest Software vWorkspace for VDI has hundreds of practical use cases. The most prevalent of them and those which are driving the rapid adoption of the vWorkspace include:

  • Outsourcing: Outsourced and offshored activities like call center operations, order and back-office processing, and software development, can be managed and maintained within the secure confines of the corporate data center, while allowing for controlled access and protection of confidential information and intellectual property.
  • Desktop Consolidation: Organizations can centrally manage and maintain a standard desktop image and application set across corporate boundaries for branch offices, offsite locations, and remote workers, and ensure that user environments are backed up and updated with the latest software.
  • Disaster Recovery: Leveraging the power of the VMware virtual infrastructure, in case of disaster, hosted desktops in virtual machines can be moved or re-deployed ensuring desktop continuity.
  • Continuity of Operations (COOP): Our workplace is continuously threatened by a variety of natural and man-made disasters, the latest of which is a pandemic outbreak. In case of such a disaster, secure and continued access to a complete user environment encapsulating the entire desktop is paramount for minimal disruptions.
  • Mobile Workforce: Our highly mobile workforce is placing ever-increasing demands on accessing corporate data from remote locations. Mobile workers can now securely access a corporate desktop along with its authorized applications and associated data, without the risk of compromising corporate assets in case of the loss or theft of a corporate laptop or desktop.
  • Compliance: Maintain data integrity and meet regulatory requirements (SOX, HIPAA, GLBA) by moving, storing and managing the sensitive data at the corporate data center instead of individual PCs.
  • Rapid Provisioning: Whether you need to rapidly deploy a new application or an update to thousands of users, or you need to provision new desktops for a newly acquired division, or an offshore development facility, a vWorkspace-enabled VDI can be centrally managed and supported ensuring rapid service provisioning to corporate clients.
