Use Cases

Wanova Mirage™ software centralizes the complete contents of each endpoint in the data center in an independently-managed, hardware-agnostic format. These Centralized Virtual Desktops (CVDs) can be easily moved from one desktop (physical or virtual) to another, creating a wide range of use cases. The Wanova Client runs a local cache of this CVD directly on the endpoint hardware, using local compute resources to ensure native PC performance and enable offline productivity. Other use cases include:

• Hardware Migration: If a user needs to move to a new laptop – even one from a different manufacturer – the CVD can be transferred to the new device, and the user can be up and running in minutes with full personalization and all their previously installed applications.--Read More--
  

• Desktop Backup and Fast Restore: Because the primary copy of the entire desktop contents resides in the data center, organizations can easily create backups, with snapshots for point in time restores. Desktop streaming delivers a snapshot to a broken endpoint and has the end user up and running in minutes. End users can also restore single files themselves, further reducing support costs. Plus, companies retain employees’ valuable data even when they leave. --Read More--
  

• Windows XP to Windows 7 Migration: Wanova Mirage dramatically simplifies the process of migrating PCs from Windows XP to Windows 7, even if the end user is remote or mobile. --Read More--
  

• Single Image Management – IT administrators can manage, patch and ensure compliance with one Base Image, which can be easily deployed and continually enforced to hundreds of endpoints, while retaining user personalization. Offline users will be automatically updated when they reconnect.
  

• Business Continuity: An IT administrators can load a CVD into a physical or virtual machine for troubleshooting, or re-image an endpoint in minutes instead of hours or days, without deleting user-installed applications or settings.
