Provision Networks, a division of Quest, today unveiled its Experience Optimization Pack (EOP). Quest EOP is an extension suite for Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) aimed to eliminate the adoption barriers of hosted desktop virtualization in all use case scenarios over both local area and wide area networks.
Hosted desktop technologies such as VDI, Blade PCs or even presentation virtualization rely on RDP to provide access and connectivity. RDP, however, does not deliver a PC-like, or even a near PC-like, experience. Quest’s EOP embraces and extends RDP and delivers the optimal user experience for LAN and WAN connectivity. Quest EOP:
- Delivers support for bi-directional audio, enabling organizations to deploy dictation, collaboration and certain VOIP applications.
- Accelerates the delivery of multimedia content such as recorded webcasts and web-based training from remote virtualized desktops and applications.
- Dramatically improves the remoting of graphics including browser and flash acceleration.
- Eliminates the effects of network latency which can cause havoc even for simple applications such as word processing.
Quest’s EOP is available immediately as an optional add-on to the Provision Networks Virtual Access Suite v5.10, the enterprise multi-platform desktop virtualization solution.
