VDI offers the way to move the regular users' desktops to the datacenter; a user no longer needs hardware that supports the operating system and their applications. By simply using a thin client PC or other mobile devices, users can access their virtual desktop using a common network protocol (such as RDP).

This aspect also minimizes several hours that could require not only recovering information from a backup more efficiently. And, also optimize the time we cover providing other support tasks with on-site assistance (such as computer freezing).
