VDI – Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
A better way to deploy and manage desktops.

Virtualized desktops on hosted servers enable you to maintain and manage all remote development and testing applications, data, and environments right in your own data center. VMware's Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), a server-based computing solution, makes it possible.

View VMware's new Flash demo and see how to:
•	Stop providing fully configured desktops that are costly to set up and maintain. VDI can help you save money by giving you the option of replacing traditional PCs with thin clients, repurposed PCs, or less costly hardware.
•	Make remote desktops more supportable. When you bring desktop PCs home to the data center, there's no need to send IT personnel offsite to fix hardware or reconfigure a PC.
•	Gain central control over offsite desktop users. A single virtual machine running in the data center can be shared across users and built with restrictions that keep users from modifying their desktops.
•	Meet regulatory requirements. Now, all your confidential information stays safely in your data center where you can more practically track and enforce access to personal records or sensitive data.
And that's just for starters.
Here's your chance to see how VMware's Virtual Desktop Infrastructure can improve the management of your call center or remote office desktops. The flash demo is a great introduction to VDI, but if you would like to learn more and talk to VDI experts – attend our seminar this week in Grand Rapids. See below for details.

The experts estimate that 60 to 70 percent of mission-critical data is stored at off-site locations, and according to the U.S. Census Bureau there are more than one million remote office/branch office (ROBO) sites nationwide.

In response to these needs, CPR has introduced Protect – an online backup service that allows customers to back up, recover and protect their critical data. An agentless online backup and restore solution for distributed environments, Protect safeguards all your mission critical information whether the data is on laptops, desktops or servers.

If you are struggling with the “operational headaches” that come along with backups, data loss, long downtime during restores, and if you must deal with security and compliance issues, then CPR’s Protect service can help address your concerns.

Locally stored and fully encrypted in CPR’s Data Center, Protect is designed to fully automate the backup/recovery process, while ensuring the security of your data.
