WINDOWS 11 IS HERE. WINDOWS 10 IS APPROACHING ITS END OF LIFE. NOW WHAT? 

Windows 11 brings some challenges, none bigger than devices being incompatible. Windows 10 EOL puts a flag in the sand–your current solution will degrade from here. The further out that flag fades from sight, the larger the security concerns grow. It's time for organizations to embrace Windows 11 without the implied costs and complexity of a full refurb.

You have multiple options available, and the good news is that we have made them simple and straightforward. Whether you want to repurpose existing devices, use new cost-effective endpoints, or a combination of both, NComputing ensures a smooth, secure, and environmentally friendly migration path.

 

The Challenge 

When Windows 10 support ends, updates and security patches will no longer be available, leaving systems exposed to cyber threats. Organizations with incompatible hardware must choose between costly new devices or continuing with vulnerable systems. Either option brings substantial costs, complexity, and logistical hurdles. 

The opportunity

Migrating to Windows 11 in the cloud offers a valuable opportunity to boost efficiency, scalability, and security. With NComputing, businesses can fully utilize Windows 11’s advanced features while lowering hardware demands, simplifying IT management, and enabling flexible remote or hybrid work setups—all while optimizing costs for a more streamlined, future-ready operation.

Centralized management via PMC Endpoint Manager

Sustainable Solutions

The NComputing concept begins with central planning. PMC Endpoint Manager becomes your control center, giving you reach beyond internal networks to administer all your endpoints. This migration empowers employees with faster, cloud-based access to their desktops from virtually any device, ensuring future readiness and aligning the company with the latest technological innovations.

Endpoint Options

NComputing endpoints provide secure access to Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solutions. Their small footprint makes them ideal for many use cases, from school libraries and classrooms to manufacturing floors, business offices, and healthcare facilities.

Repurpose and BYOD with LEAF OS

LEAF OS offers a cost-effective solution for organizations with devices that don’t meet Windows 11's hardware requirements. LEAF OS transforms outdated hardware into high-performance thin clients, allowing users to access Windows 11 through virtualization platforms such as Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD). LEAF OS secures your existing devices, extends their useful life, opens the door to Windows 11, and minimizes the logistical challenges associated with legacy hardware.

LeafOS on laptops

Repurpose, reuse

Flashed directly to the internal hard drive, LEAF OS turns any* x86-64 PC or thin client into a permanently repurposed thin client

LEAF OS USB

Enable BYOD

Alternatively, keep your internal drive untouched and boot from a LEAF OS USB drive. When the work is done, simply reboot from teh native OS. Ideal for BYOB and work-from-home scenarios.

Raspberry Pi solutions 

RX420(RDP)

NComputing offers endpoints built on Raspberry Pi—the RX-RDP+RX420(RDP) and RX440(RDP)—which deliver PC-like performance and run Windows 11 in the cloud at a fraction of the cost of traditional devices. 

X86-64 based devices

EX500W

The EX500W is optimized for multiple virtualization platforms. With LEAF OS at its core, features include 4K Ultra HD video, dual monitor ports, gigabit ethernet, Wi-Fi, and broad peripheral supporti.

Endpoint Security

Next-Level Endpoint Security

Organizations can significantly strengthen endpoint security and protect sensitive data by leveraging our solutions. We provide comprehensive security measures, from secure boot processes and locked-down Linux-based operating systems to encrypted communications and stringent data protection protocols. These safeguards minimize attack surfaces and eliminate the need for local antivirus software. NComputing’s centralized management platform also enables streamlined provisioning, updates, and policy enforcement. The platform also supports BYOD initiatives, ensuring a fully isolated, secure computing environment without compromising data integrity or organizational security.

 
 

Compatible DaaS and VDI platforms

NComputing supports many Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) platforms, encouraging businesses to choose their best solution. Our devices, software, and management systems seamlessly integrate with these platforms.
