Server Based Computing
Solutions
Portage Software's focus on
reduced downtime and reduced management complexity is a natural fit with
server based computing (SBC) paradigms such as Thin Client, Terminal
Services and Citrix. SBC environments have many benefits associated with the
economies achieved through centralization and aggregation of computing
assets. Our suite of SBC tools is designed to minimize the management
complexity and increase the ROI associated with SBC deployments. The
following SBC solutions are currently offered by Portage Software
End-to-End
Monitoring, Triage and Root Cause Analysis
Accurate, fast diagnosis of
problems helps reduce downtime and improve customer satisfaction. Owing to
the multi-tier nature of Citrix environments, a slow-down in one tier can
cause a slow down of the entire service. With an End-to-End Monitoring,
Triage and Root Cause Analysis Solution, when a problem occurs, your
administrators will know whether it is a problem with the network, web
server, directory server, profile server, presentation server, backend
database, or other component of the service.

Reporting and
Analytics
Better manage your Citrix
environment by running Citrix data through an OLAP analytical engine and
translating it into metrics that CIOs, non-technical management, and
engineers can all understand. In this way, we lend historical context to a
wide variety of statistics, including all-important application and server
usage trends through graphically rich reports. This allows for better
planning for capacity upgrades, keeps hardware expenditures in control and
helps manage licensing costs. Learn more.
Printer
Management
End the headache of managing
printer drivers on your servers. Remove printer drivers from your Citrix and
Terminal Servers and still print to any available local client printer
without administrator intervention. You can do all of this while increasing
printing speed and decreasing printing bandwidth requirements.

Profile
Management
Better manage any size terminal
server environment with centralized, well-structured administration of
individual user profiles, rules and groups. Improve login times and minimize
profile sizes. Learn more.
Security & System
Lockdown
Rapidly configure and deploy
tightly controlled applications and remote desktops with higher server
security for Citrix and Terminal Servers. Replace complex and time consuming
group policy edits and scripting with an intuitive graphical configuration
tool and enhance server security by preventing unauthorized executables from
running on your Terminal Servers.

Terminal Server
Session Auditing
Record and replay terminal server
sessions for audit and forensic purposes..

System
Provisioning and Configuration Management
Traditionally, terminal server /
Citrix environments have been more time consuming to manage than other
infrastructure servers, as a result the ratio of administrators to servers
tends to be higher. Until recently there have been few tools that address
the lifecycle management of the Terminal Server platform. Our suite can help
automate the building of a new infrastructure or the migration or expansion
of an existing infrastructure as well as the ongoing management associated
with the platform.

Optimization and
Scalability Solutions
Our scalability and optimization
tools help our customers get more out of their investment in server based
computing. By increasing the number of concurrent users each server can
handle, the total number of servers required is reduced. This is achieved by
identifying and managing/banning rogue applications, isolating critical (or
misbehaving) applications, reducing page faults, and improving load times
and application performance. Learn more.
