We knew that our partnership with 2x would allow us to extend the range of services we already provide many of our business customers. ITC are now able to provide flexible remote access solutions for desktops, files and applications. One of these business customers has already taken advantage of 2x’s ApplicationServer, granting several users secure access to their accounting software and bespoke applications from anywhere.
To show how the ApplicationServer works, we’ve included some screen-shots of the server we configured at ITC on Windows Server 2003 (it also supports Server 2008). As you’ll see, adding individual applications is easy, and the manager allows you to configure user security for each application, and computer security for all your applications.
To access the applications configured using ApplicationServer, you can install the client for Windows, Linux and Mac. There is also a portable version of the client, giving you plug and play access to your applications and files anywhere you go.

 Enforcing Computer Security (using MAC Addresses) with 2x ApplicationServer. |

 Each application runs in it's own window, without loading the whole remote desktop. |
If you know you could benefit from a remote access solution, looking for a cheaper Citrix alternative, or simply interested in how sharing applications and desktops can help your business, please contact us.

To fulfil the requirements of one of our business customers, ITC have recently partnered with 2X to extend the range of remote access and thin client solutions. Thin clients provide your normal desktop environment but move the processing and storage to a server rather than the individual computer. This has several advantages; it generates cost savings on computer hardware, reduce administrative effort in maintaining the operating systems and provides increased data security and reliability. However, more importantly for our customer, Thin clients offer complete flexibility, making your desktop and it’s data completely mobile. Our business customer now has access to their accounting software, bespoke applications and data from anywhere they work.
Our partnership with 2X will allow you to take advantage of their Virtual Desktop Server (several operating systems on one server), Application Server (share any of your applications locally and remotely) and Thin Client Servers.
If security is paramount in your business, or you need reliable 24/7 access to your data, then a thin client solution is what you need. If you have any questions regarding our Thin Client or Remote Access solutions, or would simply like to discuss your requirements, please contact us.
