NoMachine and VirtualORGS partner to provide world's first cloud-based Organization-as-a-Service
Rome,
Italy, February 15, 2011 - NoMachine, a leading provider of virtual
desktop and remote access solutions, announced today that VirtualORGS
has chosen NoMachine NX to power its complete Organization-as-a-Service
solution, combining IT-as-a-Service and Software-as-a-Service into one
unprecedentedly convenient cloud-based offering.
As an
integrated component of VirtualORGS virtual portfolio, NoMachine's
virtual desktop solution, NX Server, will provide organizations with
secure on-demand access to cloud-hosted solutions which span services
from storage to software to hosted networks and domains.
Using
NoMachine's NX Server for secure remote access, VirtualORGS provides a
complete cloud solution which leapfrogs traditional web based offerings.
The solution packages the world's leading open source software –
including specialized applications for business processes and
intelligence as well as sophisticated productivity and collaboration
tools - for users with all the advantages of a familiar desktop user
interface.
Setting up an Organization-as-a-Service is as easy
as the click of a mouse. VirtualORGS provides a complete system for the
relevant organization supporting the customer's choice of domain name,
and the username of their first superuser account, within as little as
an hour.
Additional user accounts can then be created, archived
or restored on demand, thus permitting automatic scaling of the
organization's IT infrastructure on-demand. Upon creation of a new
desktop, provisioning for storage capacity, email and calendaring,
access to the organization's shared folder, appropriate applications,
and single-sign-on set up for team collaboration software is also
activated. New users can be added to their organization almost
instantly, ready to work and be productive from any Windows, Mac, or
Linux device, no matter where users may physically be.
“NoMachine
was a natural fit,” said VirtualORGS CEO William Stewart. “We chose
their software because of it's reliability, scalability, and blazingly
fast speed. Even across long distances and over slow connections,
VirtualORGS desktops run as fast as locally installed software.”
“The
idea was a simple one: to provide an easy, affordable, and low risk IT
solution in the cloud to help organizations better achieve their mission
by maximizing the benefits they can receive from open source.”
Priced
between $0.33 and $1.00 a day per user, the VirtualORGS solution makes
affordable world class cloud IT available - for the first time - to
small/ medium sized organizations, non-profits, and schools.
“This
is yet another example of how NoMachine NX adapts to one of the
defining trends which are shaping the small business market in the 21st
century. For businesses determined to grow, yet constrained by limited
finances and resources, leveraging cloud services brings powerful
benefits. Combining the power of NX with a portfolio of secure, scalable
on-demand solutions by VirtualORGS enables any organization to do just
that,” said Business Development Manager, Sarah Dryell, at NoMachine.
The
dynamic combination of NoMachine's NX powerful virtual desktop and
remote access management software and VirtualORGS industry-leading open
source portfolio means that outstanding performance and value are
consistent, organizations are empowered to get quickly started on
projects, grow and shrink their environments according to current needs
and tap into the full benefits of cloud computing easier than ever
before.
