NoMachine receives a high rating and positive review for its
unique, high quality security and performance it provides in delivering
remote desktops and applications Rome, Italy September 28, 2010 – NoMachine's NX Client receives an 8/10 rating and according to Nick Veitch's review, appearing in Linux Format and on Techradar, is one of the best Linux remote desktop clients available on today's market.
The
review speaks of NoMachine's simple philosophy where every aspect of
remote display fits into a server-client software relationship, creating
an approach completely different from the standard VNC setup. Using SSH
encryption, the NX protocol delivers a high level of security.
Bandwidth usage is reduced through NX's smart data compression methods
and clever caching.
Recognized for multi-platform support,
NoMachine NX also supports RPC for Windows machines using a similar
interface and acting as a general remote access tool. Acknowledging
NoMachine's flexibility, the article mentions the ability to make NX
sessions easily available with easy pre-configuration from the NX Client
software and then being able to save them as settings.
Some of
the functionalities that were questioned in this article will be
addressed and improved with the upcoming NX 4.0 release. Firstly, the
number of software packages to install on the server side can often be
the main obstacle for newcomers. For this reason, NoMachine is
introducing a new easy-to-install product, NX Connect, which will
provide users with one unique software package that installs NX Client,
Node and Server automatically without the need for any further
configuration.
Secondly, to make the NX Client more user-friendly
and visually appealing, NoMachine has completely redesigned the GUI
with NX 4.0. Services and settings can all be managed at one place
inside the session at anytime, including session configuration. This
will be possible via the new utility toolbar offering users on-the-fly
access to an array of functionalities.
Lastly, this article
mentions NoMachine's lack of server software for Windows and Mac, but
with the quickly approaching release of NX 4.0, this will no longer be
true. In NX 4.0, NoMachine has extended native platform support by
offering NX Connect for Windows and Mac OS.
Regarding these
questioned functionalities, Nick Veitch writes, “But all that goes by
the by when you see it run. Whatever magic pixies sit in the pipes
pushing the data through, they do an incredible job. NX on NX definitely
gives the best user experience...”
NX 4.0 will not only deliver
an impressive and powerful feature-set, it will bring with it a whole
new concept of remote desktop access offering state-of-the art
performance and portability. To learn more about NoMachine NX 4.0 visit
