First Step in Your VDI Initiative – Proof of Concept

Monday, January 18th, 2010

Is your organization looking to break-away from the old ways of deploying desktops?  If so, how do you validate that a new approach is better, more efficient and overcomes past challenges? The answer: a Proof-of-Concept.  This is the way to prove out the technology, gather intelligence about your user base, application usage, and network.  It will require you to define requirements for success, those specific requirements will, of course, be different for each situation and organization.

We’ve seen where some organizations want to validate how easily a Windows desktop can be delivered to worldwide users on older hardware while others wanted to see how they can make application updates occur more frequently and with less effort.  The challenges will be small and large, but a methodical approach intelligence gathering and to a proof-of-concept will make resolving these challenges attainable.

How to Ensure Your Virtual Desktop Initiative Succeeds

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Check out the article titled How to Ensure Your Virtual Desktop Initiative Succeeds written by Martin Pladgeman, 10ZiG President, which outlines tips for a success virtual desktop deployment.

Here’s an excerpt:

Before you start down the road of Proof-of-Concepts, Pilots, etc. you have to do some investigation first. What are some of the questions to ask of your IT organization leaders? 

  1. Try asking your desktop support lead how many calls and desk-side support trips result from OS or application related problems. 
  2. Ask your security lead about the gaps that remain to ensure that your data is secure and can be accessed only by who has authorization. 
  3. We all know that the business runs on applications, so the applications team lead should be in here as well don’t you agree?  Ask them what the characteristics of all “corporate-approved” apps, like performance, availability, and compatibility requirements are. 
  4. And finally, from the business perspective, ask the senior business managers about what objections and push-back the business users might raise about giving up some control over “their” workstations and laptops.

How did we come up with 10ZiG?

Friday, September 18th, 2009

When we decided to change our name, we quickly discovered it wasn’t going to be easy. How could we come up with a name that would:

1. Encompass who we are
2. Have a .com url available
3. Have no potential trademark issues
4. Be easy to spell

Many names came and went. Many trademark searches were performed only to end in upset. We decided then to hire A Hundred Monkeys to help us. A Hundred Monkeys was a naming firm and their name stood out to us, so why not. After many rounds of names and many potential winners we decided upon 10ZiG Technology because it met all of our objectives above and seemed to fit us very nicely.

The name 10ZiG comes from Tenzig (also translated Tenzing) Norgay who was the knowledgeable guide who directed Edmund Hillary on the voyage to become the first two people to climb Mt. Everest. We like to think of ourselves as guides within our own market who do everything we can to educate customers on the best technology solutions to fit their environment. We focus on what we do best, offering quality solutions, personalized attention and great customer support.
