Take Steps to Successful VDI Implementation
VDI has a lot of moving parts. Get them moving in the right direction.
- VDI implementation is a complex, long-term project with many intangible benefits that, while valuable, are sometimes difficult to communicate.
- Besides ensuring the right infrastructure, there is the added pressure of convincing end users that they are not giving up their PCs, that IT is undergoing a significant culture change, and that the business is not necessarily going to save wads of cash.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
- VDI is a potential desktop replacement technology, but deployment projects should not focus on the desktop first. Instead, focus on delivering the service to end users.
Impact and Result
- For best results in implementing VDI, start by assessing your current desktop delivery strategy. You don’t know what you can do until you define what you now do.
- Run a pilot implementation rather than a simple POC. The infrastructure must be tailored to deliver the best fit for your budget and your users.
