The VirtualCable Team has released UDS Enterprise Free Edition, a lifetime free edition of the Windows and Linux multiplatform connection broker.
UDS Enterprise Free Edition includes the same features as the paid version except from support, upcoming patches and updates and the number of users of virtual desktops that may be registered, that are limited to 10.
A committee comprised by experts from more than 20 Spanish universities have chosen UDS Enterprise as best On Premise VDI solution and second VDI Cloud solution after evaluating solutions from 15 VDI vendors.
Its “ease of use, implementation, management and deployment, its response to incidents, its stability and the integration with other applications, as Moodle” are some of the features that led it above solutions such as VMware Horizon, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization or Citrix XenDesktop.
In previous posts we explained what’s new in UDS Enterprise 1.7 , but it is worth mentioning another series of features that have been improved or updated in this new version of the software.
Important security improvements have been introduced, thanks to the API REST redesign, incremental removal of the use of internal IDs in favour of non predictable UUIDS and new actor implementation.
