VMware Horizon Client for iOS makes it easy to work on your VMware Horizon virtual desktop and hosted applications from your iPhone or iPad, giving you on-the-go access from any location.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A VMware Horizon virtual desktop or hosted application is required to use the VMware Horizon Client for iOS. Contact your IT department for further assistance.
FEATURES:
ENHANCED USER EXPERIENCE
The VMware Blast Extreme protocol used with Horizon 7 is designed and optimized for mobile users. Blast Extreme leverages H.264 hardware decoding to deliver the best remote experience while reducing power consumption.
LEAVE THE DESKTOP BEHIND WITH HOSTED APPLICATIONS
VMware Horizon 6 and later supports hosted applications in addition to virtual desktops. With hosted applications, leave the desktop behind and run applications like local iOS apps.
BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
Unity Touch bridges the gap between your touch screen and your Windows applications. With Unity Touch, you can easily browse, search, and open Windows applications & files, choose favorite applications and files, and switch between running applications all without the Start Menu or Task Bar.
WORK SMARTER
With an external monitor or AirPlay, your iPhone or iPad display turns into a trackpad / keyboard while the external screen shows your VMware Horizon desktop.
UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
The adaptive capabilities of the Blast Extreme and PCoIP display protocol make your virtual desktop fast and responsive regardless of whether you are connecting over your corporate WiFi network or over a cellular connection at a local café.
SECURE FROM ANY LOCATION
Whether you’re at your desk or away from the office, you’re always secure with VMware Horizon. Leverage smart card authentication with the Biometric Associates baiMobile 301MP smart card reader. Use the integrated RSA soft token for simpler access.
SUPPORT:
Individual users of the VMware Horizon Client for iOS should contact their internal IT help desk or visit http://www.vmware.com/go/view. Only Support Administrators listed on a Basic or Production Support contract for VMware Horizon may log a service ticket with VMware Technical Support
Pros and cons of VMware Horizon Client app for iPhone and iPad
VMware Horizon Client app good for
I am using it from Brazil to access my virtual desktop in California, and my experience is excellent!
The VMware View app is the best iPad Remote App Ive ever seen. A combination of OSX, iPad and Windows gestures are possible. The great thing about it is the performance of PCoIP on the iPad. Even Flash looks good.
Definitely a game changer. I can get Flash, Quicktime and all the other good stuff you need for a seamless experience. Connected my iPad to a monitor and a bluetooth keyboard, and used the iPad as a mouse, it worked great. Good performance over 3G as well.
Say hello to the future of corporate desktops.
Very cool. Thx!
iPhoneでは厳しいですが。
あと3G回線も厳しいですね。
iPad&Wi-Fiなら文句なしです。
Working great with PCoIP over VPN! Thank you VMware!
Just one request for you, could you build a PCoIP View version for Mac please?
This app needs two things to be near perfect. And to me theyre painfully obvious omissions:
Touch ID to access servers. Kind of crazy that this is not already here.
The little option bubble in full screen view mode always defaults to the same obnoxious place once youre connected. Itd be really nice if it would just remember where I put it last (out of the way) when I finish a session.
Some bad moments
Still not useable with special characters like the German Umlauts äöüß and so on. Still have to use Wyse Pocket Cloud Pro.
I was happy to see this app, but It has yet to work successfully for me. It continues to tell me that the network speed is too slow, then it closes my connection. I have pocket cloud and I never got any network speed problems.
Network speeds problems have been reported by this app in both 3G and wifi.
If they fix the issue, then this app is got great potential.
This was one of those technologies that just simply worked. I know its a cliche but Horizon really had me blown away.
The new update of the Agent to 6.2 messed things up. The screen doesnt scale anymore when connected. I cant see the start button anymore. Nor does the scaling work when in landscape and mouse clicks arent where you click.
My rating is just a motivator for you to fix this VMware. I will change the rating when its fixed :)
I failed to connect to corporate network from 3g or home wi fi. Black screen appears, then message that speed is too slow and disconnect. Peer program Pocketcloud works normally. VMware client has better interface and tools but its impossible to work with it outside office. Pls fix bugs with connectivity.
Its great unless you want to use the keyboard function. Great virtual desktop with no typing capacity.
Now I cant connect to our vies servers keeps complaining that the addressing configuration is not compatible with the view servers...
