Rome, Italy, March 18, 2010 – NoMachine has reconfirmed its
educational licensing program for all schools, universities and
charities worldwide, making it easy and cost-effective to deliver
unlimited hosted desktops and applications to every student and staff
member, regardless of location. This longstanding program makes
high-performance remote access and application delivery technology
available to education and non-profit customers on a limited budget. NoMachine's
all-inclusive, subscription-based model offers predictable spending
with fixed per-server pricing, unlimited technical assistance and access
to all major upgrades and features. With reduced education spending
worldwide due to the recession and non-profits functioning on low
budgets, NoMachine provides an easily manageable, end to end computing
infrastructure for educational institutions and charities alike. Academic
institutions at both the K-12 and university level are required to
operate at the same or higher academic standards as in previous years,
but with reduced budgets. According to the Center on Budget and Policy
Priorities, K-12 education spending in the U.S. was reduced in over half
of the states in 2008 and 2009, with higher education spending reduced
in 38 states. Other parts of the world, including Europe, are reducing
public funds for the education sector as well. With even more cuts
being issued for 2011, educational institutions struggle to offer
students and staff better computing experiences in classrooms,
laboratories, from home or anywhere on campus. NoMachine NX provides a
hosted desktop and fast remote access solution allowing students and
faculty to access resources, applications and programs stored on the
school or campus servers from anywhere. Hardware, software and travel
costs are subsequently lowered and productivity is increased by
providing mobile connectivity. Some of the many participants
benefiting from the education licensing program include Mosaic,
University of Virginia, University of Chicago, University of Colorado,
University of Leicester, University of Limoges and University of
Michigan. Mosaic successfully migrated its entire infrastructure
from Windows to Linux with NX to reduce costs, improve performance and
enhance security. Data storage and security administrator for Mosaic
National Office, Thomas Keown, said, “There really is no comparison to
be made to other solutions, as the cost of NX in terms of the overall IT
expenditure is almost negligible.” The Computational Systems
Biology Laboratory (CSBL) at the University of Virginia uses NX to
ensure students and faculty receive a full and consistent desktop with
application delivery from remote locations just as if they were in a
classroom on campus. IT specialist for the CSBL, Michael Saravo, said
“Along with anywhere access to research, NX saves us money by providing
an easy method for desktop replacement allowing users to extend the life
cycle of slower and older machines by running applications on back-end
servers, significantly reducing our hardware costs.” To read
