Viewfinity Desktop Virtualization Lowers IT Tech Support's Admin-to-PC Ratio
Waltham, MA April 27, 2009 — Viewfinity, a provider of laptop and desktop virtualization software, offers features that allow IT to support more desktops and laptops with fewer system administrators. With unemployment rising due to the current global economic crisis, companies everywhere are forced to support their current infrastructure with less IT staff. CIOs also recognize that innovative approaches in information technology help them to generate savings and revenues even more so than what might have resulted through cost cutting.
Viewfinity's desktop virtualization is a technology enabler for robust and high-value PC life cycle management. By way of its underlying virtualization technology, Viewfinity features allow IT technical support staff the ability to take immediate corrective action, thus reducing the need to escalate trouble tickets or dispatch engineers for desk side visits. Viewfinity can be delivered via a SaaS platform, which lessens IT management required at the back-end infrastructure level. On average, preliminary studies indicate that in a 1000 desktop and laptop environment, our software enables enterprises to service up to 60% more laptop and desktops problems with an average resolution rate dropping from 15 minutes to 5 minutes.
