Challenges that often hinder educational institutions from implementing VDI solutions include:

Not enough time, budget or man hours to implement a VDI and manage endpoints

Managing a complex environment and separating student devices from faculty/staff

Managing a mixed environment of PCs, Laptops and Thin Clients

Managing many school sites across a district without needing an on premise server at each site.

K-12 and High School

School districts can use one NoTouch Center installation for all of their sites. Different administrator roles can be assigned and the software can be hosted off-premise or on-premise. NoTouch allows for the re-use of older machines along with new PCs and/or Thin Clients. Boot from local hard drives as well as from the network (PXE). This allows you to quickly boot from PCs whether or not the original OS on the end devices should be changed or not.

You will need a an endpoint OS and management solution powerful enough to handle rollouts to thousands of machines, along with one flexible enough to handle the mixed challenges you will face in a University and/or College VDI environment.
