With DEM, which is part of VMware Horizon, you can configure user environment and application settings that can be applied to a user on physical or virtual machines without the use of GPOs. If you find yourself in this situation, consider this: Without DEM, you’d have to assemble multiple other tools and scripts to accomplish all the things DEM can do. VMware Dynamic Environment Manager (DEM) is a critical piece to successful Horizon environments in large part because, as one person put it, it’s the Swiss Army Knife of Windows settings management. Simply put, Horizon is built to satisfy all your use cases without all the complexity. And App Volumes can be implemented without having to fundamentally alter the way desktops are created and deployed. Universal Broker removes the need for inter-site communications and GSLB Dynamic Environment Manager requires no server infrastructure – relying only on CIFS shares and a GPO-configurable agent.
Horizon and its supporting components have been built to make your life easier and your environment less complex. Simplified management across the boardĪs you read on, you’ll note a common thread of simplified management, but it’s worth calling it out as a standalone benefit, too. The best examples of this are with App Volumes and Dynamic Environment Manager, and you can see how we’re continuing down that path with the addition of Workspace ONE UEM management of virtual desktops. With Horizon, VMware has taken great care to integrate the various components into a cohesive platform in support of a common EUC vision. Tightly integrated componentsĪ desktop virtualization platform that’s a mishmash of acquired products often behaves like one, resulting in management headaches and multiple support calls. So, without further ado, let’s jump into the top 10 things that are awesome about VMware Horizon! 1. Rather than writing about Horizon through the lens of VMware marketing, I decided to reach out to folks in the field that work on Horizon projects every day to find out what they think – and hear from our customers – are the most beneficial features of Horizon.Īs expected, I got a significant amount of feedback, and I wanted to share that here. We’ve actually covered a few of those topics recently, but today I wanted to take a different approach. I spend a lot of time talking about why VMware Horizon is great, and why anyone struggling with outdated or legacy environments should take a look.
