Pano Logic was created to address the growing costs and complexity of the PC-based desktop computing paradigm.
We've brought together a team of engineers and executives who've had decades of experience working on different approaches to this problem – both from thin-client hardware companies and from virtualization software vendors.
We've leveraged this expertise and experience to take a fresh look at how desktop consolidation and virtualization can provide the Windows desktop users need while rescuing IT from the escalating overhead of managing and securing distributed PCs.
We started out by setting a few concrete goals for the Pano System that would bring unique value to our customers and channel partners:
- Centralize everything - move all of the software and processing – and the resulting complexity and management workload – into the data center to maximize the benefits of centralization,
- Be complete - deliver everything, from client hardware to management tools to integration with corporate networking standards, needed to minimize the training and deployment overhead for IT staff,
- Work like Windows - provide as close to a native Windows desktop experience as possible, including native driver support, to minimize user retraining, hardware replacement costs and deployment disruptions.
