In case you missed it, last week marked the end of general support for vSphere 6.5 and 6.7. This is the same regardless of whether you were using it for data centre services or EUC services like Horizon.

This year, myself and Matt Evans joined forced again, along with newcomer, Jonathan D’arcy to review some of the best desktop repurposing tools on the market. As with previous years we reviewed imaging and performance. However, this year we also took a look at the accompanying management solutions.
Check out the Youtube link below for the full review, and in the Youtube link you’ll also find the full videos we made for each solution.
We’re seeing an increase in news articles and customer requests around enabling staff to work from home.

This week saw the release of VMware Horizon 7.8. If you’re wondering what’s included, i’ve gathered a few links which should help. VMware are trying really hard to close the feature gap between the old Flash admin console and the new HTML5 console and seem to have been great progress with this release. Hopefully it won’t be too long before we see the end of the Flash gui.
From time to time this seems to crop up so i thought i’d share with you some info about a lesser known feature of Horizon. That is the ability to apply filters to domain lists that Horizon shows at users login prompts. By default, Horizon will scan it’s own domain and all other trusted domains and return all of them. Many customers don’t want to confuse their users and just want them to see a single domain option.
The latest release of Horizon has arrived in the last week. For more info on what’s included see the following
