SYNK
End-User Computing · Architecture · Advisory
Synk designs the virtual desktop and end-user computing platforms that organizations rely on, and helps people everywhere make sense of the technology in their lives.
Two ways to work together
Strategy and design for virtual desktop and application delivery, from first assessment to a roadmap your team can execute.
Patient, one-on-one sessions that explain your computers, phones and accounts in plain language so you feel in control.
Capabilities
Understand licensing impact, evaluate alternatives and build a defensible plan to move off VMware platforms on your timeline.
Reference architectures for Horizon and Citrix environments: brokering, image management, profiles, networking and security.
An independent look at an existing environment, with findings ranked by risk and effort, and clear next steps.
Define what good performance means, measure it, and find the bottleneck before users call the help desk.
Hands-on sessions that bring your engineers and decision-makers to the same understanding of the design.
Friendly, jargon-free guidance for individuals and families on devices, accounts, privacy and everyday problems.
Reference architecture
A user reaches a desktop or app through nine layers. Select any block to see what it does, the decision it forces, and where designs usually go wrong.
Generalized for illustration. Every environment differs; real designs are shaped by users, applications, sites and risk.
Broadcom exit
Enter your own numbers to compare staying on VMware subscription pricing with moving to another platform. Every price below is an example. Replace them with your quote.
How an engagement runs
A focused conversation about your goals, constraints and what is working today.
We review the environment or situation and identify what matters most.
Options, trade-offs and a recommended architecture or approach, in plain terms.
Documentation and guidance so you can act with confidence, with or without us.
