VMware ACE
Take Control of Virtual Desktops across the Enterprise
Deploy and manage secure, portable client PC environments across the
enterprise and beyond. With VMware ACE, your organization can combine the power
and versatility of virtual machines with the security and control of centrally
managed PCs, making it easier to:
- Manage virtual desktops from a single point of control
- Increase security and flexibility for mobile and remote workers
- Safely extend corporate resources to 3rd party unmanaged PCs
- Deliver fully configured virtual desktops for demos and training
Revolutionize the way your organization manages enterprise
desktops. Download the
data sheet for more information. Remote workers, business partners and third-party service providers all need
access to corporate data and network resources, yet IT must also adhere to an
ever-growing list of security and corporate governance regulations that are
often at odds with user needs. As a result, many organizations are seeking ways
to increase flexibility for their end-users without compromising security and
control over endpoint PCs and other critical IT assets.
Harness the Power of Desktop Virtualization
VMware ACE is a comprehensive enterprise solution that organizations use to
provision standardized client PC environments inside secure, centrally managed
virtual machines called ACEs. Each ACE contains a complete client PC—including
the operating system and all applications. Desktop administrators use the
dynamic policy configuration capabilities in ACE to lock down endpoints with
device and network access control, there by protecting confidential company data
and ensuring compliance with IT polices.
Use Workstation 6 with the ACE Option Pack to create, package and deploy ACEs
to local and remote endpoints such as laptop and desktop PCs, or even portable
USB devices such as thumb drives and portable hard drives.
Once deployed, use the ACE Management Server to monitor ACEs and enforce
corporate policies from a central location. The ACE Management Server enables
administrators to deliver dynamic policy updates to local and remote ACE
instances, as well as to control the activation and de-activation of each
package for contractors, consultants and other temporary users.
