MUMBAI, INDIA and REDWOOD CITY, CA -- 10/28/09 --
According to the latest IDC
report, NComputing, the
worldwide leader in desktop virtualization, is now a top thin-client vendor
in the rapidly growing Asia-Pacific market. NComputing has quickly emerged
as the global leader in thin-client and virtual desktop computing because
it uniquely delivers an ultra-low cost solution with a rich multimedia
computing experience unmatched by traditional thin-client vendors. Notably,
the company has surpassed Wyse in market share.
"The IDC data validates what we are seeing across the world. Organizations
want to cut computing costs dramatically, and they are looking for
innovative but proven solutions like those offered by NComputing," said
Stephen Dukker, chairman and CEO of NComputing. "Unlike traditional thin
clients, which rely on high-end servers and involve complex installation
and maintenance processes, NComputing thin clients can connect to desktop
PCs and can be up and running in minutes. Customers save on capital
expenses and operating expenses."
According to the IDC report, the financial services industry is the largest
market in the region, with nearly half of all thin-client deployments. The
public sector also grew by an impressive 47%. During the same period,
NComputing announced major government contract wins, including the largest
education tender in India, a 5,000-school computerization project in the
state of Andhra Pradesh.
"Our education
business continues to accelerate globally, but it's our commercial
business that is showing the fastest growth," commented Mr. Dukker. "Our
customers are rolling out multi-thousand seat projects in banks,
distribution, retail, branch offices, factories, and healthcare.
NComputing's success is crossing every sector and every geographic region."
The NComputing
solution is based on the simple fact that today's PCs are so powerful
that the vast majority of users only need a small fraction of the computing
capacity. NComputing taps this unused resource so that it can be
simultaneously shared by many users. Each user's monitor, keyboard and
mouse connect to a small and highly reliable NComputing thin client, which
is then connected to a shared PC or server. Up to 30 users can share a
single PC, or hundreds can share a low-cost server with no impact on
performance. The entire NComputing solution costs only US $70-$180
(depending on model and region).
In addition to lower capital costs, NComputing also lowers operating
expenses. By efficiently and effectively sharing computer power, NComputing
drastically reduces the crippling cost of computer obsolescence. The
NComputing solution also reduces maintenance budgets and, because
NComputing thin clients only use 1 to 5 watts of electricity, cuts
electricity and cooling costs by 90% or more.
NComputing has won numerous prestigious awards including those from The
Wall Street Journal, Frost & Sullivan, CES, Gartner, eIndia, and PC Quest.
