Compute Smartly

NComputing evolves and benefits from additional resources with ZeroDesktop’s Cloud and Mobile Computing business.

We are excited to announce that, as of Monday, February 23rd   2015, certain core assets of NComputing, Inc. have been acquired by ZeroDesktop, Inc., a leading developer of next generation Cloud Computing solutions.

Young Song, the original founder of NComputing, is the Chief Executive Officer of the Buyer and Richard Sah, ZeroDesktop co-founder, is joing as Chief Product Officer to lead all new product development.  Existing NComputing customers and partners will see ZeroDesktop continue to support the NComputing brand, for the assets it has acquired.

ZeroDesktop is committed to supporting NComputing’s 70,000 customers and their 20 million users in 140 countries. On a daily basis the 20 million users of NComputing’s vSpace desktop virtualization platform regularly access Windows and Linux desktops from over 4 million NComputing thin-client devices. To continue to support and develop for these customers ZeroDesktop will retain the NComputing employees and will continue to be dedicated to the NComputing product business.  Now, with over 100 employees worldwide, ZeroDesktop is well positioned to continue the leadership position that NComputing developed in the market as the #1 thin-client vendor in APAC and the #3 thin-client vendor worldwide (IDC, 2014).

 

Back to Basic Core: Simple, Powerful, Affordable!

Over the next 12-months ZeroDesktop is committed to making investments in developing the NComputing product roadmap for the vSpace virtualization platform, thin-client hardware and software clients to access the vSpace Server Software.

The new software roadmap includes major new releases of the vSpace Server Software for both Windows and Linux desktop virtualization, vSpace software clients for Chromebooks, iOS and Android tablets along with HTML5 browser support to  extend the reach of the vSpace desktop virtualization solution to any end point device.

New updated versions of NComputing’s hardware thin-clients for vSpace are planned that will provide new features that customers have been long demanding.  And, the Citrix HDX 3D Pro certified N-Series enterprise thin clients will be enhanced with new models with enhanced features and the option of additional, third party thin client protocol support.

We were very pleased to be able to complete the first two product releases from this roadmap, for vSpace Server Software 8.1 and vSpace Management Center 3.6, in February, 2015 during the acquisition by ZeroDesktop, Inc.

During the next few weeks we will be announcing the next major update to the vSpace Server Software for Windows that will not require separate management services.
