Motivation
Linux is beloved by many and sees wide use as the backbone in corporate infrastructure. However – employee hardware typically runs Windows or macOS, commonly enforced by corporate policy. Such policies do not play well with the portion of users that need Linux in their day-to-day work. These policies are often motivated by the fact that device manufacturers offer full support if the operating system is not altered. Moreover, many organizations rely heavily on proprietary software not available on Linux, further complicating natively running Linux on employee devices.
With a centralized graphical Linux environment remotely accessed through ThinLinc, you can provide for your Linux yearning users without rethinking corporate policy or voiding device supplier support agreements. All while not locking these users out of business-critical software that does not offer Linux support. ThinLinc is a scalable remote desktop solution capable of complementing your native operating system with a performant Linux experience for a few specialized users or your entire organization.
End-user benefits
- The ThinLinc client tightly integrates with the operating system to make using the remote Linux environment as streamlined as possible. Examples include seamless sharing of clipboard, files, printers, and smart card readers.
- In contrast to many other remote desktop solutions, ThinLinc effortlessly delivers a user experience almost indistinguishable from working on the local machine.
Sysadmin benefits
- Easily integrates with pre-existing Microsoft and Apple network infrastructure.
- With a Linux environment already in place, ThinLinc is built with interoperability as a first-class priority. If that is not the case, setting up a ThinLinc server on a fresh machine is done in a matter of minutes.
- World-class onboarding and support – we will make sure you succeed!
Organizational benefits
- Let your users harness the power of Linux without losing full device support from device manufacturers.
