The introduction of thin client technology is an important and revolutionary change that has resulted in a number of benefits for the businesses. It saves on the cost involved in the purchase and installation of different hardware products in a number of systems. But with the technology being a revolution, there are many myths that are circulated in the market. Here we bring a myth buster and the real picture of the Citrix Thin Clients Have a look:
- It requires system upgrades and higher cost: Installing this technology does not intend to replace or upgrade all the equipment in the organization. The management can decide to enroll and introduce the new technology and devices gradually or to get all the changes at once. When it comes to the cost factor, it cuts down the cost of various hardware parts to be installed and power consumption in comparison to a fat client.
- Compromised security: Another myth is that one compromises on security with this technology. But there is more threat to the security when it comes to the multiple terminals storing the information rather than on a centralized server. The hacker, in this case, can attack any of the terminals and can extract data.
- Difficult to access and is complicated to use: The misconceptions about the use of technology and the wrong information that it is circulated around the market make the companies conscious about its use. The main reason behind it being the resistance to change from the employees making it difficult to implement the technology.
