Feature Lists Expands to Include Directory Services Integration and  Workgroup Manager Options to Enhance Mac Remote Desktop Services

Aqua  Connect, Inc., providers of the only enterprise grade Mac terminal server, today announced support for over 60 features and  options in their Mac  terminal services solution. The Aqua  Connect Terminal Server supports the latest OS X features such as  Core Animation and Core Image, along with greater compatibility with  Apple’s Workgroup Manager.

Aqua Connect Terminal Server can now utilize more of the functionality  of Apple’s Workgroup Manager, including the ability to create a Simple  Finder in OS X. A Simple Finder will allow administrators to deliver  single or specific applications to users while also disabling the other  functions of the desktop. Simple Finder is the easiest way for  administrators to present application virtualization in OS  X terminal services.

“Our goal with bringing remote desktop services to the Mac platform has  been to create a local desktop experience for end-users,” said Renee  Mehrian, Executive VP of Aqua Connect. “This commitment drives our  continuous work and efforts to increase the feature set and capabilities  of Aqua Connect Terminal Server.”

The Aqua Connect Administrator Tool was developed to complement  Workgroup Manager’s features. The Administrator Tool is capable of  customizing specific user environments to increase performance in low  bandwidth networks. Color and packet compression along with CPU  prioritization allows administrators to enhance performance settings for  specific users.

Aqua Connect also announced today improved full screen application Open  GL support. This enhancement of Open GL capabilities allows for greater  scalability on the server. Applications use ¼ of their normally required  workstation memory usage when deployed through an Aqua Connect Terminal  Server user session. This allows organizations to increase the  scalability and deployment of applications in their organization.

The complete supported  features and options list is available on Aqua Connect’s website
