New feature seamlessly harvests user documents and files from existing desktops to VMware View, Citrix XenDesktop, Microsoft Windows 7
ALPHARETTA, Ga., Nov. 18 -- Liquidware Labs, the leader in Assessment and User Experience Management for next generation desktops, today announced the availability of Liquidware Labs ProfileUnity v4.5 with exclusive user data synchronization capabilities to migrate desktop documents and data, enabling organizations to further speed adoption and ease management of new desktop technologies such as VMware View, Citrix XenDesktop, and Microsoft Windows 7.
ProfileUnity Pro provides comprehensive user profile management and configures user settings during logon. The new background block-level data synchronization feature in v4.5 enables user data (documents, files, etc.) to be harvested from existing Windows desktops by synching the data to a central data store where it can then be accessed on-demand from the user''s existing and next generation desktop, regardless of architecture -- VMware View, Citrix XenDesktop, or a physical Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7 PC.
Data is migrated in the background using block-level transfer during a user''s session through a centrally managed folder redirection and synchronization module in ProfileUnity Pro. File migration can be optimized through a built-in throttling feature that ensures that network traffic is not affected. The new user data synchronization feature is especially useful in invoking best practices for desktop data storage, speeding the adoption of next generation desktops, and as part of a comprehensive desktop disaster recovery plan. Data is also made available to laptops through offline folders. The solution runs with zero touch and there is no software to install or manage on each desktop.
