DHS Informatisering together with Scense has a recipe for successful VMware View implementations

DHS Informatisering, a leading IT services provider of virtualization infrastructure solutions and Scense, the technology leader in Workspace Management solutions have partnered to successfully market and implement VMware View solutions. This partnership has already resulted in big wins for the companies in 2011 including government organizations and enterprises. Amongst these customers are multiple governmental municipalities including the safety house of the ’s-Hertogenbosch region, the ‘s-Hertogenbosch City Library, the National Maritime Museum as well as the construction firm Van der Heijden. The projects represented a wide range of legacy environments including a mix of TS\Citrix and physical desktops. All environments were successfully migrated to flexible, manageable and reliable VMware View and Scense environments, some including Ultra-Thin Client monitors from Samsung and/or LG.

Sander van der Post, Sales Manager within DHS explains: “Our customers all understand the benefits of a VMware View environment with floating desktops. They want to be able to offer their end users the ability to access functional and personal desktops from any location in a reliable and safe manner. We are known as one off the IT partners offering the knowledge and the solutions to implement such an environment successfully. We used Scense Workspace Management in our VMware View offerings, to complement the benefits of desktop virtualization environments.”

“Our customers need personal desktops”, van der Post continues. “In the past this could only be offered by using persistent desktops, resulting in huge storage costs and management nightmares”. “Today we use Scense Workspace Management to transform non persistent desktops into functional, personalized floating desktops. We are now able to offer the best user experience to our customers in combination with low storage requirements and low complexity. And because Scense reaches outside the virtual desktop environment, we are able to offer this experience with all devices: virtual and physical, even on an employee owned laptop or home-pc”

Anne Klop, IT manager within the library of the city of ’s-Hertogenbosch explains: “We expected a challenging migration because of the fact that we needed to support a mixed environment with virtual and physical desktops and had limited resources and storage available for this purpose. Next to that, we needed a solution to replace Novell Zenworks. DHS and Scense have shown to be able to successfully address all these challenges. Today, we are able to offer our end users a functional and personal desktop on both virtual and physical clients. With Scense, even the toughest applications are now delivered and configured with ease. We don’t have a very large IT staff available, but are still able to manage our desktop and application environment smoothly.”

Willem van Enter, regional Director Benelux within VMware, adds: "VMware is dedicated to simplify IT manageability and control, while providing a high fidelity desktop virtualization experience. Through our collaboration with partners like DHS and Scense, who contribute with specific experience and knowledge, customers are able to benefit fully from flexible, manageable and reliable VMware View environments."
