Thin Clients – Back to the future

Remember the old school “dumb terminals?” Well, it seems that the concept was pretty good, and now we have an updated version called “thin clients.” These thin clients aren’t like your normal desktop pc. Instead of having a robust system running its own operating system, thin clients only require minimal specs, and remotely connect to a server where everything a user needs is stored. Not unlike the dumb terminals of days gone by.

Why would I want to use thin clients?

Thin clients offer many advantages over the traditional desktop set up. Here are a few:

     - Greater control – both over users and the device itself

     - Lower cost

     - Lower power requirements

     - Takes up less space

     - Increased security

     - Reliability – thin clients are solid state systems so they last longer

These are just a few of the many reasons why thin clients are a good solution for businesses. If you would like more information about setting up your company with thin clients please feel free to contact our helpful staff.
