Choosing the Correct Printing Options with…

Printing is a key requirement for both virtual desktops (VDI/RDSH) and RDSH-published applications. VMware Horizon 7 supports both local printer redirection and native network printers. Both choices serve very different purposes, and in this blog we will discuss typical use cases for both solutions. In addition, we will show how to use VMware User Environment Manager, part of Horizon 7 Enterprise Edition, to more easily manage network printer mapping and deliver “follow-me printing.”

VMware AirWatch 101: Per-App VPN

Per-App Virtual Private Network (VPN) functionality changes the game for securing remote mobile endpoints. VPN connections enable end users to access internal resources from anywhere and on any device. However, traditional VPN solution lack the intelligence to distinguish between personal and productive apps, allowing access to ALL the device’s apps. VMware AirWatch per-app VPN establishes connectivity at an application level, instead of on a per-device basis. When an authorized app launches, VMware Tunnel establishes a silent connection for seamless and secure access.
