VMware have just released several new mobile clients for View. Hot on the heals of the new iPAD client from Citrix last week VMware have released a new View client that has some well overdue and innovative features.
The main new feature is that the client now supports iOS multitasking, in layman terms it means that you can flip between View desktops and local applications and still have a connected View desktop.
Naturally through the close links with RSA, there is now support for soft tokens in the View client itself. A mobile device really should have a mobile soft token support for 2 factor authentication and at last we now have it.
Hot on the new capability of iOS 5, View can now leverage Apple’s AirPlay to allow your iPAD to connect wirelessly to a large form factor display. Naturally you will need an Apple TV to connect this to wirelessly but we think this is a neat solution.
The Android client has now come out of beta mode and is now fully supported so that’s good news for honeycomb based tablets such as the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet.
It is great news for those businesses that are looking to adopt tablets in the enterprise and are looking to get a faster return on their investment through integrating with VDI implementations.
