Managing Windows user profiles can be a complex and challenging process. Better profile management is usually sought by organizations looking to reduce Windows login times, accommodate applications that do not adhere to best practice application data storage, and to give users the flexibility to login to any Windows Operating System (OS) and have their profile follow them.

Note that additional profile challenges and solutions are covered in a related ProfileUnity whitepaper entitled “User Profile and Environment Management with ProfileUnity.” To efficiently manage the complex challenges of today’s diverse Windows profile environments, Liquidware ProfileUnity exclusively features two user profile technologies that can be used together or separately depending on the use case. These include:

1. ProfileDisk™, a virtual disk based profile that delivers the entire profile as a layer from an attached user VHD or VMDK, and

2. Profile Portability, a file and registry based profile solution that restores files at login, post login, or based on environment triggers.

Overcoming Digital Workspace Challenges

Software vendors are delivering changes to Operating Systems and Applications faster than ever. Agile development is driving smaller (but still significant), more frequent changes. Digital Workspace managers in the Enterprise are being bombarded with increased demand.

With this in mind, Login VSI looks at the issues and solutions to the challenges Digital Workspace management will be presented with – today and tomorrow.

The rate of changes for the OS and Applications keeps increasing. It seems like there are updates every day, and keeping up with those updates is a daunting task.

Digital workspace managers need the ways and means to keep up with all the changes AND reduce the risk that all these updates represent for the applications themselves, the infrastructure they live on, and most importantly, for the users that rely on Digital Workspaces to do their job effectively and efficiently.

Downtime is extremely damaging in VDI environments. Revenue and reputation are lost, not to mention opportunity cost.
