Thin Client

What is a thin client?

A thin client is a slim computer device that outsources most computing tasks to a central server. Thin clients have minimal hardware resources and are mainly designed for displaying applications and accessing data. They are used in virtual desktop infrastructures (VDI).

Advantages and areas of application

Thin clients are cost-efficient, easy to maintain and offer a high level of security as no sensitive data is stored locally. They are ideal for companies that operate centralized IT structures, as well as for educational institutions and call centers where access to applications and data needs to be standardized.
