    By combining the benefits of roaming desktops with the simplicity of No Click Access delivered by Imprivata OneSign, clinicians can now access Citrix XenDesktop or XenApp with the tap of a badge or swipe of a fingerprint - enabling clinicians to dedicate more of their time with their patients and less time with the computer.

  • Healthcare Leading the Way in Desktop Virtualization
    by James Millington
    Monday, October 24, 2011 - 4:03pm

    Healthcare has the reputation of being highly resistant to change, that paper based systems are the best solution and that clinicians will simply not use any replacement. Why else would a hospital have to prove that they are meaningfully using new technology in order to receive the HITECH funding? Couldn’t we just trust them? So who’d have thunk it that in a survey of 477 IT professionals across multiple industries, it’s healthcare that are leading the way in the deployment of desktop virtualization!

  • Fast User Switching Overview
    by Justyna Evlogiadis
    Monday, October 24, 2011 - 4:00pm

    Fast User Switching is a term that can often be confused because it can be applied to an application workflow or a workstation that is shared among different users. For example, in the healthcare field, many Electronic Medical Record (EMR) vendors have a feature built-in that allows a user to “suspend” or “log off” the application without actually closing the application down, thus requiring the user to have to restart the application. This feature is primarily a time saver and is most often seen in an Outpatient care model where a patient comes in for an appointment but is not being admitted to the hospital.

  • The X Factor for Maintaining a Successful Deployment
    by Jeff MacLellan
    Thursday, September 22, 2011 - 4:06pm

    I often have conversations with customers about the level of effort that is required to support OneSign once it is deployed. We usually talk about the resources that are required to work on testing new application profiles or changes to existing profiles, but if you back up one level, you will see the X factor.

  • VMworld 2011 : Final thoughts
    by Ed Gaudet
    Friday, September 9, 2011 - 4:10pm

    To round out VMworld 2011 I wrote another guest blog for SearchHealthIT summarizing why I think healthcare has made a significant move into desktop virtualization in the last 12 months. Now that’s done, what about the next big thing? What about the cloud? The feeling this year was health care is still three years away from public cloud adoption. Are you seeing the same thing in your hospital? Do the VMworld trends match your IT priorities over the next 12 months? I’d love to hear your comments…
