Need Better Windows Virtual Desktop Monitoring and Management? Here Are Some First Steps.

August 24, 2020 By Andy Milford Leave a Comment

In our years of experience, we see many teams know that they need better monitoring and management of Windows Virtual Desktop, but they often struggle with getting started. This has been especially true through the recent wave of re-tooling to accommodate so many working from home.

If you are in the process of deploying, or have recently deployed Windows Virtual Desktop, you’re likely struggling with the lack of native WVD monitoring and WVD management tools.

Do Any Of These Pain Points Ring A Bell?

These are common areas that are often first identified as pain points or needs:

  • Shadowing/remote assistance tools, and a way to delegate out management tasks to non-admin help desk staff.
  • Synthetic login monitoring of your WVD hosts, to see if they become slow to respond or stop responding (with alerts if black screens or user profile problems start appearing).
  • Useful analytics, dashboards, and reports that track things like user activity (idle/active time), per user consumption of resources, network connection quality or latency.

Of course, there are a lot of nice-to-haves and things that teams identify as deployments mature, but the above points are the major areas we see and can specifically address right away. You can follow the links above to find more information about how we target those needs and with what products.

But, For How Much?

You will likely be looking at our Remote Desktop Commander Suite or opting for our Complete WVD Monitoring and Management Bundle.

We offer convenient subscription-based pricing, and if you have more than a handful of hosts, we offer volume discounts that will make it even more affordable. Plus, we feature pricing that is per host VM per month, not per user. That can make a huge difference.

You simply will not find a better deal in the market in terms of price per features for comprehensive monitoring and management of your WVD infrastructure. And we keep adding more and more WVD specific features to our solutions, month after month.

Next Steps . . .

Have ready the number of host VMs and the number of admin/help desk users that will be managing the environment. Then, request a quote to monitor your WVD environment. There is no obligation, and we’ll get back in touch with you shortly to verify your needs and find out more about your WVD deployment.

You’ll soon see the value in these solutions.
