One downside to the NComputing solution, as with Pano Logic, is that it works with the vendor's proprietary access devices only. (See InfoWorld's " Thin Client Computing Deep Dive Report" for more on Terminal Services and thin clients.) This does not mean that a group of engineers can all run AutoCAD on this host, but normal everyday business apps, like word processing and email, will have little trouble. ![]() ![]() For instance, an off-the-shelf desktop PC with 4GB of RAM and a decent CPU can host up to 30 simultaneous clients on Windows XP Pro. Performance on a LAN was excellent, but the NComputing solution suffered some performance issues over a WAN.īecause vSpace is so low-overhead and well-optimized, it doesn't require the latest in server virtualization technology to handle multiple users. ![]() Much like Terminal Services, it carves up the underlying system's resources among multiple users, allowing a single computer to host as many as 30 simultaneous desktops. NComputing's vSpace is a virtualization application with an ultrasmall footprint that runs on any Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 host operating system. ![]() NComputing is the only VDI solution of the three reviewed that provides its own virtualization layer - no VMware, Citrix, or Microsoft hypervisor required.
