Enterprise adoption of the Citrix Ready Workspace Hub by NComputing (RX-HDX) gains momentum

Hundreds of customers in deployment; Announcing a new device at Citrix Summit

SAN MATEO, Calif., Jan. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- NComputing, a founding partner of the Citrix Ready Workspace Hub solution, has gained significant customer adoption in various enterprise verticals since officially launched at Citrix Synergy in May 2018. With successful deployments growing across Fortune 1000 companies, NComputing is excited to announce the addition of the RX-HDX+, based on the Raspberry PI 3+ platform. The RX-HDX+ adds 5Ghz WiFi connectivity and gigabit ethernet to an already successful thin client platform. NComputing will be exhibiting the RX-HDX+ at Citrix Summit in Orlando January 7-9.

The Citrix Ready Workspace Hub by NComputing (RX-HDX) has shown itself to be a disruptive endpoint device in the Citrix market, slashing the typical costs of VDI client hardware and support by up to 80% while delivering all of the performance, security and manageability demanded by the enterprise.

"IntraSystems continues to experience strong confidence and expansion of the Citrix Ready Workspace Hub solution by NComputing (RX-HDX thin client). Coupled with its superior price/performance, rugged design, dual display capability, highly differentiated Citrix Casting features, and the enterprise-grade device management, we are seeing strong customer adoption in various Enterprise vertical markets, such as healthcare, manufacturing, and finance. NComputing's announcement of the RX-HDX+ thin client brings our customers even more opportunities in delivering Citrix Ready Workspace Hub solutions for their end users. We look forward to our continued success as a NComputing Strategic Partner by providing enterprise customers savings and lower cost of ownership for their Citrix deployment," said Paul Kunze, Vice President, Sales & Marketing for IntraSystems.

Many enterprise customers have adopted the NComputing's RX-HDX solution to meet their IT challenges while achiving significant cost savings over other solutions. Some example use cases include:

Improving clinician productivity for healthcare providers:
Citrix Casting or integrated Imprivata support allow clinicians fast access to patient records as they move room to room. With a fully enclosed case, the RX-HDX meets or exceeds hygienic requirements. Germs and viruses are not pushed through the air as there are no internal moving parts or fans to do so.

Driving values for financial services:
Replacing aging PCs or traditional x86 thin clients can be expensive. RX-HDX is a low-cost option that provides the high-quality user experience necessary for productive employees -whether they are in office or working remotely. With all data centrally located at the server and not the device itself, the RX-HDX is a secure, reliable, and easily managed Citrix endpoint.

Streamlining workflows for manufacturing and logistics industries:
Mount it on the ceiling, in an environment prone to dust and dirt, or the clean room where IT access is problematic. Physical access to the device is not required thanks to centralized remote device management for this maintenance-free device.

"The RX-HDX has become the catalyst for a dramatic, industry-wide paradigm shift: the convergence of thin clients and connected devices, such as mobile apps and sensors to deliver enterprise-grade functionality while pushing innovative use cases that are transforming the workspace. Through its built-in Citrix Casting feature, users can roam their sessions or cast their screen from their smartphones, tablets or laptops to a nearby hub via the Citrix Workspace app for Android, iOS, Windows and MacOS. This differentiated feature enhances the mobility of users, setting RX-HDX apart from traditional x86 or Raspberry Pi-based thin clients. The addition of the RX-HDX+ solution will further address customers requiring 5GHz WiFi," said Richard Sah, CTO for NComputing.
