Why VERDE VDI™?

VERDE VDI provides the most secure, easy-to-use, enterprise-grade virtual desktop infrastructure. At a price that is considerably less than our competition, VERDE VDI offers three additional capabilities that separate it from the competition: we treat Windows and Linux clients as equal citizens, eliminate WAN latency by decentralizing VDI processing to the edge of your organization, and we span one’s end-user computing fabric from on-premise to cloud-hosted, or hybrid using our unique Cloud Branch technology.

VERDE VDI delivers enterprise-level features.

Desktop computing for business doesn't need to be complicated or expensive. VERDE VDI takes the sensibilities of enterprise-level virtualization and makes them available to small- and medium-sized business.

Our competitors continue to avoid reality and disregard the prevalence of Linux in mainstream corporations. VERDE VDI embraces Linux, providing a seamless environment for serving Linux desktops of all stripes and configurations, side-by-side with Windows.

But we go further than just serving up desktops. Lets say I have to do a compile job once a month, needing multiple cores to finish in a reasonable amount of time. I don’t have to have a beefy workstation sitting idly all month waiting for that job to call upon it. With VERDE VDI there can be an instance available to the engineer that can be called upon when needed.

Resources will be carved out of the existing pool to handle the job, and then returned to the pool when complete. Does that sound familiar? Sound like cloud? Well, yes.

VDI has a cloud-like architecture and allows organizations to reconfigure on the fly depending on the needs of the moment. In a Linux desktop user population – research, engineering, CAD, military, intelligence, etc., VDI is a huge advancement in flexibility, cost optimization and security.

VDI, as promoted by our competitors, has gotten a bad name from its inability to be successful outside of headquarters.

VERDE VDI has an innovative capability that uses caching and differential updates, among other techniques, to effectively “akamaize” VDI, cache it at the edge for easy, quick access, but without requiring any local management/administrator involvement.

The major benefits of this approach in addition to eliminating WAN latency, is business continuity – if the external network goes down, all the local apps will keep working without interruption. It also reduces network bandwidth as the applications are all communicating over the LAN and seldom need to go out over the WAN for normal desktop application usage.

Schools, campuses, branches, regional data centers, mission isolation, etc. all benefit from this architecture. VERDE VDI is a perfect solution for bringing the benefits of VDI to these user populations.

VERDE VDI, is an end-to-end virtual desktop infrastructure and management solution that combines VDI, offline VDI and VDI remote branch solutions to remove the management burden, complexity and cost traditionally associated with desktop virtualization solutions.

VERDE VDI offers unified management and reporting through a single console and is adaptable for today’s dynamic environment. Ideal for companies of all sizes, VERDE VDI can scale up to ten thousand clustered servers or scale down to a single-server configuration.

Through a combination of better hardware efficiencies, more attractive all-in-one pricing, the ability to optimize workloads between Windows and Linux, and incredibly easier management, VERDE VDI is by far the best ROI among the competition.

VERDE VDI has a long history as a preferred secure desktop platform with demanding users like the NSA, CIA CSEC and others. And for good reason. VERDE VDI is secure on a number of levels.

Being built organically from the ground up gives us a much more deterministic architecture as opposed to the cobbled-together monstrosities from our competitors, which not only make their solutions complicated and difficult to manage, but also introduces inherited code and architectures from smaller, acquired companies bought to plug the holes in their offerings.

VERDE VDI starts with a solid, secure Linux foundation. It then incorporates a dynamic provisioning model that makes users more impervious to malware by making unsanctioned changes non-persisting. We even go so far as to give admins the ability to set permission on USB devices by model and serial number.

If you identify only this make/model of drive authorized on this device, then any attempt to copy info to a non-authorized device will be blocked and logged. VDI in general offers tremendous security improvements over traditional desktops, but VERDE VDI takes this security to a whole new level with innovations we have developed over a long relationship with many demanding users.

Client Access

VERDE VDI connects to a wide range of endpoint devices including PCs, thin clients, software clients and any HTML5 enabled browser. Regardless of where you are, you're never far away from your desktop.

With VERDE VDI 8.2 you now have the option to use the RX300 or RX-RDP thin clients–our own devices with support for both RDP and UXP 2.0 access protocols. Using the RX300 or RX-RDP as your connection device means you have one company that supplies both an award-winning, server-hosted VDI software solution and an easy-to-manage access device.

In addition to the RX300 and RX-RDP thin clients, we continue to support:

  • PC Clients
    • Windows 7, 8, 10
    • Mac OS X up to and including High Sierra 10.13.3
    • Linux OS models running Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS, Ubuntu
    • LEAF OS

Peace-of-Mind Security

VERDE VDI is built from the ground up on a secure Linux foundation.

Prevention of malware, virus attacks, data leakage and unauthorized access to the internal network are all cornerstones of VERDE VDI security protocols.

Dynamic desktop provisioning protects users by making unsanctioned changes non-persistent. Automating desktop image management also helps keep deployed workspaces up-to-date.

VERDE VDI allowed us to continue instruction during the pandemic and facilitated a paradigm shift that will be beneficial to the students when normality returns.
Jojo Castillo
Executive Director for Technical Services
Asia Pacific College
We have successfully deployed VERDE VDI in our head office and bank branches providing desktop virtualization to 1650 of our bank staff. Installation of the VERDE solution is fast, easier to manage, and VM connectivity is faster than previous VERDE versions.
Woo Sung-hoon

Busan Bank
We have successfully deployed VERDE VDI in our outpatient clinics providing desktop virtualization to 250 of our hospital staff. Compared to the previous product, the performance of VM is faster, and the method to deploy the VM is also easy and convenient.
Kim Byeong-kook

Gyeongsang National University Hospital
We have deployed VERDE VDI for several customers and are also using it ourselves. Customers could not believe the quickness of installing and running VDI for their company. Within a week all desktops where replaced with RX300 devices and they could work from home, at the office or anywhere they want, even without a client by using the HTML5 browser.
Tom Kaalverink
Director
Bantoe
We deployed VERDE VDI to approximately 120 of our employees. We have used other VDI solutions that required us to maintain and support multiple servers running different roles. With VERDE VDI the exact same result is achieved with just a single server. Our end users embraced the change to the VERDE VDI environment and noted that the experience was quite similar to using a regular physical PC. Upgrading Operating Systems and applications which would normally take us months can now be completed in hours.
