Rome, November 19, 2007 - NoMachine, leading and award-winning provider
of enterprise-class solutions for secure remote access, desktop
virtualization, and hosted desktop deployment announced today that it
has entered into an agreement with the leading provider of Linux for
intelligent devices and communications infrastructure, MontaVista
Software, Inc.
The collaboration involves the new MontaVista
TestDrive program, which uses NoMachine's NX technology to offer
customers a secure online evaluation of MontaVista's embedded Linux
operating software and the MontaVista DevRocket integrated development
environment (IDE). TestDrive's virtual environment allows developers to
fully test the capabilities of MontaVista Linux Professional Edition
before making a design or purchase decision. This remote evaluation
capability is made available via NoMachine's NX technology.
After
registration and screening, users are allowed to download NoMachine NX
Client on any PC via the NX Web Companion. This is a small browser Java
applet and plugin easily integrated into the corporate Intranet to give
users one-click-access to MontaVista applications made available on the
NX Server. NX Client, once transparently downloaded, allows users to
start NX sessions and get quick and easy access to the MontaVista Linux
operating system and the IDE. The user can test their applications in a
virtual MontaVista Linux environment which ensures they get the full
experience of the Linux operating system and the DevRocket IDE before
coming to a final decision.
“As more and more enterprises look
to the advantages of hosted applications and virtual environments, they
need to provide efficient connectivity combined with user-friendly
technology,” says Sarah Dryell, Business Development Manager of
NoMachine. “NoMachine NX is the perfect vehicle to distribute
MontaVista Linux and DevRocket across the network to dispersed
evaluators. We are particularly excited to be collaborating with such a
pioneer of open source solutions.”
The lengthy processes of
installing software, license management set up, and waiting for
product downloads has now been eliminated. The waiting game is over.
Developers can now create and run their own test applications with the
ease and speed of NX Client to determine if MontaVista will fit and
work for their environment needs. The MontaVista TestDrive program,
using NX Enterprise Desktop, allows customers to retrieve applications
quickly and evaluate them efficiently in their own time and at their
own pace.
“MontaVista' s TestDrive gives developers the ability
to virtually evaluate MontaVista products for embedded designs at their
leisure,” says Joerg Bertholdt, Director of Marketing, Embedded
Platform for MontaVista Software. “TestDrive provides a faster start of
projects, a faster sales cycle, better evaluation, and saves the
customer money. NoMachine NX technology provides a secure way to access
the virtual evaluation environment remotely over the Internet.”
