Abtech Teams with Pano Logic to Offer "Zero-Client" Virtual Desktop Solution

Abtech Systems, a provider of enterprise technology solutions, has teamed with manufacturing vendor partner Pano Logic to introduce The Pano System, the greener answer to tedious desktop replacement and maintenance.

Abtech, along with VMware and Pano Logic, can help companies simplify their computing infrastructure and reduce or eliminate costs for any organization. Pano Logic brands itself as the leader in zero client desktop virtualization (VDI). Its solutions are gaining a rapid following because they are radically changing desktop computing by centralizing everything – desktop management, support, and the user experience – on the server.

Executives and business managers agree that one of the most significant burdens to an IT budget is the ongoing purchase, maintenance and lifecycle management of desktop & laptop computers. Abtech solves the problem by designing a virtual desktop solution that will significantly reduce common IT issues, providing a business with a better computing experience plus greater financial benefits.

“Abtech’s custom-design based on the Pano Logic platform will cut associated costs such as power consumption, staff time and efforts, network and data security, and allow for better interfacing with technology to increase company profits,” said Bob Russell, President of Abtech.

The zero client desktop virtualization approach is also an innovative means to introduce green technology and cut costs over installing PCs and software on every desktop. Research firm Gartner Inc. reports the market for virtualized desktops will grow 40-fold to $65.7 billion by 2013.

In most organizations the Pano Logic solution can be deployed in under an hour. It eliminates the complexity and overhead of endpoint devices, which can comprise 80 percent of the total cost of ownership (TCO) of thin clients, with a zero client that contains no processor, operating system, storage, drivers, nor any moving parts. By removing processing power from the endpoint, Abtech can eliminate endpoint security breaches, and drastically reduce energy consumption.

The Pano Logic device redefines green technology. At less than three watts per user, zero clients consume 97 percent less than even the most energy efficient PCs and weigh less than 16 ounces, and last seven to 10 years, compared to the average 15-pound PC that lasts three to five years, resulting in a dramatic reduction in e-waste.

Abtech expects its Pano Logic virtual desktop solution to be a hit among middle market organizations in health care, education, law, government, manufacturing, banking, and especially to companies that are subject to HIPAA and Sarbannes-Oxley compliance. Abtech can help these organizations achieve dramatic savings and benefits without the need for specialized IT competencies and staff. Thanks to Abtech, IT managers are able to deliver end users a familiar Windows experience while providing them with greater uptime and mobility to access their desktops from any zero client on the network.

Abtech offers its customized virtual desktop solution throughout its network of 18 service offices across the U.S. Abtech offers 7x24x365 support and a full compliment of maintenance and support services, which includes hardware and software maintenance, on site or remote consulting, disaster recovery, data center relocation, training, performance analyses, and capacity planning.
