So far the biggest problem i've encountered proposing this kind of solution was the RDP doesn't provide a user experience comparable to a real desktop. IT Managers know this and they don't want to start such a project knowing that the wast majority of users won't be happy, it means more phone calls and managers won't be happy. It all start with performance of the protocol to me, might be different for other people. Thanks for your time anyway.

You got a point there. You see, the problems i am facing to convince a new customer to start a desktop virtualization project is about user experience and even the simple aspect of how smoothly you can move a window around your desktop is a way to show someone how close to a real desktop the PCoIP experience is. Most of the people is skeptical about this and if i can show the IT Manager that it's worth to use some of their time to investigate the matter i think i can convince a lot of people. Most of IT Manager won't consider it worth to install 2 servers just to see how it work in their environments, and even if they try it in a demo environment in my company it's a lot more convincing if they see it working in their environment with their applications. My point here is that if i can show them the tip of the iceberg maybe at that point they will be willing to spend some time so see what this is all about. The problem with virtual desktop is not to implement the solutions, which is simple with View, but it's to convince that the solution will be appreciated by end users besides the costs.
No, i don't but i think it would help to start curiosity in some customers to see the PCoIP protocol at work in their own environment without installing the whole infrastructure.

Hi everyone, most of the time i find the performance of PCoIP the best way to convince someone to implement Vmware View as a whole. The problem is that it's not always easy to convince a customer to implement the infrastructure to see how it works, so i was wondering if there is a way to connect to a vm using View Client with PCoIP protocol without installing all the View infrastructure. After all, once you connect to the connection broker you connect straight to your virtual desktop once you've been told which one it is. I've never tried to target a specific desktop instead of the connection server with the View Client to see what happens but i guess it just won't work. Any idea if this is possible? Obviously i accept unsupported solutions, i am just looking for a way to show up PCoIP performance without installing View. I know it sounds crazy but it would help. Thanks for the support guys.

Hi all, this is not a technical question but a general consideration about possibility in near future of using linux desktop as view managed virtual machines to provide virtual desktop experience to users taking advantage of PCoIP protocol and linked clones technology. As far as i know this is not possible today but more than a business asked me if it's possible to start a new virtual desktop project with View 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux desktops. I would like to know if some of you people happend to have heard about something like that as possible new feature in the (not too far) future. Thank you all.
