Zero Downtime Migrations
User migrations, whether from physical to virtual or among mixed Windows OS versions, can be a challenging and time-consuming process. When users migrate to a new environment, they often need to recreate custom settings and profile data which can take time and cause frustration. User-authored data can also be entirely lost or corrupted entirely.

Hardware Life Extension
Every year, organizations invest thousands of dollars upgrading computer hardware. Typically, compute resources are over-provisioned to get longest usage. Over time, as applications are added or updated to existing hardware, performance appears to degrade, and this may prompt another costly upgrade.

Troubleshooting
Employee productivity and satisfaction rely heavily on instant access to workspaces. Workspace issues, especially for shared systems, can be caused by a variety of factors, including infrastructure configuration, resource or network bottlenecks, or application behavior. It is very difficult to spot the root cause of issues especially when workspaces run on complex shared infrastructure, such as virtual or cloud-based workspaces. The longer it takes to resolve problems the greater the impact on user productivity and the business.

Rightsizing
Organizations can run the risk of either under- or over provisioning resources (CPU, RAM) when migrating to a new virtual workspace or cloud environment, which rely on shared infrastructure. Oversizing leads to wasted expense and capacity – as much as 50 to 100 percent of your overall project cost. Under-sizing leads to lost productivity or can prompt hasty upgrades without due regard to cost.

Application Lifecycle Management
Managing workspaces requires having the perfect desktop "image" of the Windows operating system and the applications required for each user persona. This becomes highly complex when dealing with a wide variety of user types from standard users to knowledge to power, who need a variety of sophisticated applications. Creating individual desktop images per user group can result in unmanageable desktop image sprawl and increased management costs.

Windows OS Image Optimization
Optimizing a Windows OS image for production use by Windows users is crucial for ensuring the efficiency, security, and consistency of the operating system. An optimized image can reduce unnecessary resource usage and improve overall system performance, ensuring that the operating system runs more efficiently on the hardware it's installed on. Additionally, an optimized image can help reduce the attack surface of the operating system by removing unnecessary services, applications, and components that could be exploited by malicious actors. This can improve the security of the operating system, protecting the data and systems of the organization and its users.

Software License Optimization
Software application and license "creep" is a common problem for organizations that can result in wasted resources and unnecessary expenses. To avoid this, it's essential to have a desktop monitoring solution that provides detailed information about software usage metrics. By periodically auditing your organization's application licenses and usage, you can streamline costs and minimize PC image management.

Disconnected Virtual Sessions
With virtual desktops and Windows 365, users failing to log off inactive sessions can lead to a one-to-one loss in resources per workspace, resulting in significant resource waste over time. To avoid this issue, it's important to identify and manage inactive sessions across all platforms, whether the environment is on-premises or in the cloud. Platform vendors like Citrix, VMware, and Microsoft offer various methods for addressing this issue, such as setting a Microsoft Group Policy Object (GPO) or a disconnect limit with a timeout interval. By implementing these solutions, organizations can prevent inactive sessions from tying up valuable resources to ensure that users have access to the resources they need for maximum productivity. However, you still need a way to identify inactive sessions to invoke these methods.
