“As we continue through our PC refresh cycle, the Pano Logic zero clients give us the reduced energy, repair, and replacement costs and ubiquitous user access we’re looking for. From the management side, Unidesk is a game-changer. I can now custom-build lab and end user desktops without leaving my office, and rely on Unidesk’s layering ability to dynamically combine the right gold image of Microsoft Windows with the right applications I’ve assigned.”
