Your users will all have the same familiar Windows desktop experience. Access the Windows Store, Windows desktop and applications like Cortana and the Edge Browser. 


CENTRALIZED MANAGEMENT & EXPRESS DEPLOYMENT

NComputing devices can be easily configured and automatically receive updates from deployed vSpace Pro servers. Administrators may define a device template with all settings and configurations, then clone and push it to new devices. All can be centrally managed and provisioned by the IT admin with vSpace Pro, allowing control of hundreds of NComputing devices with just a few clicks. Users are always up-to-date with the latest technology. We also offer PMC, a device management solution tailored to RX-series thin clients, as part of the AMP subscription.


SUPPORT WIDE RANGE OF THIN CLIENTS AND SOFTWARE CLIENTS

vSpace Pro Enterprise Edition supports L-series, MX-series, RX300, RX-RDP+ and RX420(RDP) access device as well as some legacy products. You can even use a Windows computer you already own by installing vSpace Pro Client [Software you can install in Windows] or LEAF OS* [replace your OS completely or boot from a thumbdrive] - two great solutions for repurposing outdated computers that can’t keep up with today's computing requirements.


ENHANCED VCAST STREAMING TECHNOLOGY

vCAST Streaming reduces server-side CPU usage when users watch web videos like YouTube, Vimeo, or local media content, and does so without the need for expensive GPUs. This technology results in 


MULTIVIEW, BROADCASTING AND BLOCK ALL

Multiview allows you to see thumbnails of all sessions. Broadcasting provides screen sharing functionality, allowing one screen to be broadcast to others. This allows an instructor to broadcast their screen, or a students screen, to everyone else. Great for presentations, sharing local or web videos, or highlighting other content within a group. Block All active sessions in vSpace provides instructors or team leaders instant control to focus attention of the audience by blanking all user session screens and blocking all keyboard & mouse interactions. Other user session management controls like remote session view, send message, stop/disconnect session and session-take-over are all included.


UXP 2.0

If you are using vSpace 8 or 10, migrating to vSpace Pro Enterprise Edition will make a noticeable difference. As an example, the L300 will see up to a 27% reduction in traffic, while RX300 and vSpace Pro Client for Windows will see as much as a 43% traffic reduction.


DUAL MONITOR SUPPORT

RX420(RDP) offers a native dual display with dual display connections.
RX300 is a great device, but sometimes you just want room to stretch your mind. Add a second display with the SDA (Secondary Display Adapter) and enjoy more desktop.

NATIVE WEBCAM SUPPORT

RX300, RX-RDP+ and RX420(RDP) thin clients now support webcams compatible with popular video conferencing applications like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, WebEx, GoToMeeting and Skype. Stay productive and engage with your team when working-from-home or while distance learning.

ENHANCED SMART CARD SUPPORT

If your organization requires smart cards for single sign-on, access control or other security-related measures, vSpace Pro version 11 provides enhanced smart card support for RX300 with no limit on the number of smart card readers can be connected per vSpace Server. To learn more click here.


GO BIG - LARGE DEPLOYMENT SUPPORT

An enhanced vSpace Console allows for centralized management of user sessions and devices for deployments of all sizes, including larger deployments of 100 or more vSpace sessions per host machine. More scalability enhancements are on the horizon.


SMART BOARD AND MULTI-TOUCH

We've added support for smart boards (interactive whiteboards) and multi-touch screens (up to 10-point multi-touch) in vSpace Pro Enterprise Edition via the RX300, expanding collaborative possibilities to use cases such as kiosks and live demonstrations.


ENHANCED AUDIO QUALITY

New audio protocols to further enhance the sound quality of L-series, M-series and MX-series thin clients during multimedia content playback (e.g. web videos, Flash content).
