This article covers the benefits and instructions for deploying Service Watch Desktop for end-user devices and Desktop Virtualization platforms such as Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, or Amazon Workspaces. The use of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is on the rise because of remote work, and increased need for security, and outsourcing. The rise of these environments brings the need to proactively monitor and troubleshoot remote virtual desktops - there are lots more moving parts, for sure.
The importance of the network to businesses has increased over the years (obviously). Nowadays, they are the main way that work gets done - they're the main way anything gets done. Consequently, how organizations measure their performance needs to change as well. Rather than just focus on network availability or simple uptime, they need to dig deeper and monitor User Experience. EXperience Level Agreements (XLA) as opposed to the traditional Service-Level Agreements help them reach that goal.
The security threat vector has become wider and deeper as technology has advanced. Enterprises put a series of tools in place that attempt to close up the many possible holes. But it's not all smooth sailing for everyone. Slow performance due to security measures and high overhead can impact employee productivity.
Computer and network systems have (obviously) become vital to business operations. Occasionally, there are SaaS or network incidents and these systems do not operate as needed. Enterprises want to minimize the potential damage and get their systems back online ASAP. Integrated incident management and a strong End User Experience Management (EUEM) platform that provides synthetic and real-user monitoring is a foundation for meeting that objective.
