What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

It is a platform that offers security when connecting remotely to a server, protecting it from mishandling by an inexperienced user or a third party. The ease of connection it offers to users since it provides the way to connect through a web interface or an installed client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

We have found it to be a useful tool, and we cannot find a disadvantage. We could mention that the administration interface is simple, and perhaps its appearance could be improved a bit to be more user-friendly for the administrator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Security when granting access to a server for a user to work on their applications, often due to human errors when providing direct RDP, we forget to manage the security and permissions part for users, with Inuvika we have solved this problem. Access from anywhere in the world without fearing that our server will be directly accessed and manipulated by third parties, since with the web interface of their platform, I don't have to publish the server directly on the internet.

What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The best thing about OVD is that we can use Linux and Windows applications side by side. We have been using OVD for many years since they were a startup company. Inuvika has been very supportive of the platform and we have worked well together throughout our time. I can say that it is a very functional system for our end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The only thing I can say that a dislike is the time zone difference between Inuvika engineers and ours. We have to jump around time zones a lot to get things done. I can not say there I do not like the platform in any way it has worked well for us over the years and has encouraged us to embark on a new business venture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest thing that is solved with using OVD and a way to avoid the high costs of VDI's that are offered through companies like Cirtix. We get the functionality of Citrix without the headache we moved from Citrix to OVD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

Inuvika is easy to deploy. If you have all your systems in place, you can be up and running in a production-ready environment in less than 1 hour. You do not need to deploy a multitude of VMs per user either, so your server footprint is considerably smaller than in traditional VDI solutions. It is easy to manage as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The only complaint I have about OVD is the administration interface can feel a little "dated" and all over the place at first, however once you have become familiar with it you quickly forget about this, and you can focus on streaming your apps to end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

There are multiple ways to interact with your applications. In some instances, it is so refreshing just to be able to use a browser to connect to applications and get work done from anywhere with a desktop experience.

Its simple and effective at getting your apps to end users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

We like that OVD uses Linux desktops and can help companies reduce costs. It also has excellent security features such as two-factor authentication, making it safe to use in remote access environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

I feel that companies have a high hurdle in hiring. I feel that if there is a free license, such as a free license for up to 10 concurrent users, there will be a lot of adoption. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Telework is encouraged in Japan. We would like to avoid exposing the company intranet system directly to the Internet for security reasons. Applying security patches to each system and conducting vulnerability assessments would incur enormous operational costs.

By specifying a single entrance to the remote connection environment, OVD Enterprise, we are able to use a secure remote access environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

Great end user experience. Especially with the seamless app integration onto the desktop of your client device. Also supports USB redirection and high-end graphics.

It is Linux-based and needs less infrastructure.

It is multi-tenant enabled which is great for MSP customers looking to delivers Apps-as-a-Service.

Cost - it is a fraction of the cost of Citrix and VMware

Has its own authenticator app for 2FA

End users can reset their own passwords without having to raise a help desk ticket Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The admin console UI could do with a refresh

Although the solution is highly-scalable, this would be great if it could be automated in some way Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Inuvika is providing a fully-featured, lower cost alternative to the likes of Citrix and VMware. It allows you to quicky and easily deliver applications to end users regardless of the end point device. Perfect for remote working and also allows devices to be reused as they don't need the local power, or for end users to buy a lower cost device.

As an independent consultant it provides me with an option to give my clients all the features they need but at a much lower cost as they need less infrastructure and fewer Windows licenses. It is also easy to get setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to connect from any device, without it having great features. Very fast, versatile and safe.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

Actually I don't see any disadvantage, perhaps if the price is reduced it would be great, although compared to other solutions, Inuvika's is by far the most economical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

Not a personal downside, but OVD server is based on Linux. For us as a company we have a lot of Windows oriented engineers. Might take a little while to get support up to 2 speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Virtualizing our industry 4.0 workspace clients to allow more flexbility (eg stretching over IP network, instead of physical boxes). Easier and more rapid to deploy and have more flexbility connectivity wise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The simplicity of the product. How to set everything up and the speed with which is can be setup. Depending on your environment this is definitely a solution to always keep in mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

We struggled with our installation, but that was due to customer not willing to open up all the ports required. It can take some configuration to get it working as you want it to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem with all the hardware required. If you have the correct specifications for the servers and storage needs, then you can use any old desktop or Pi device to run the VDI on as it does not require a pc with a lot of resources as is get's it's resources from the servers.

What do you like best about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

The end user experience is very good with little or no training required, it looks and behaves exactly as I'd expect a Windows desktop to look like, on any operating system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inuvika OVD Enterprise?

There's not much to dislike when I tested the product out, although I would've liked to have had admin rights to test it further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inuvika OVD Enterprise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Inuvika addresses many common challenges of running Windows apps on non Windows operating systems as well as promoting a safe secure solution that can be adopted as part of a BYOD strategy. In my opinion it could also be used as strategy for providing specific applications to contractors and externals and ultimatley cut down costs associated with desktop delivery including hardware cost, by promoting secure BYOD.
