Readiness and complexity for VDI
NEXThink helps you assess the readiness of your infrastructure and user complexity profile for virtualization, including: hardware and software inventory, unused software, matrix usage, graphical intensity, network connections and user behavior complexity by site and departments.
Software license usage metering
NEXThink automatically identifies and tracks software license installation and usage – version by application, average and peak utilization of floating licenses, underused licenses, number of execution and global running time by user, as well as generates detailed application inventory and usage reports.
Virtual end-user experience monitoring
NEXThink helps you ensure that virtual desktops are consistently delivered with the best user experience available. It monitors resource usage and gathers comprehensive performance metrics from the end-users’ perspective. This includes response time, throughput and network latency, which enables you to pinpoint performance issues.
Compare actual ROI and TCO with objectives
With NEXThink and its ROI Calculator, you can compute and compare customized ROI and TCO reduction reports based on hard end-user computing data collected in virtual and standard desktop environments, and detect any deviation from your expectations.
