Managing Horizon virtual desktop and app environments with legacy tools—while familiar—often fall short in today’s fast-moving digital workplace. Reimaging desktops for simple updates, juggling fragmented tools, and reacting to performance issues after they’ve impacted users all contribute to unnecessary cost and complexity.

That’s why Horizon customers are leveling up with the Omnissa platform, in particular with the Omnissa UEM (unified endpoint management) and DEX (digital employee experience) solutions. Together, they offer a modern, cost-efficient way to manage and optimize Horizon virtual desktops and apps at scale.

To support new and existing Horizon customers, Omnissa is offering a special promotion that bundles two key offerings that optimize Horizon management and experience:

• Workspace ONE Desktop Essentials – a part of Workspace ONE UEM with advanced desktop management capabilities for Horizon environments
• Workspace ONE Experience Management for Horizon – a part of the Omnissa DEX solution built for Horizon environments

Modernizing Horizon Management with Workspace ONE UEM 

Maintaining Horizon desktops and apps shouldn’t mean rebuilding OS images or using manual, resource-intensive workflows to update configurations. Workspace ONE UEM delivers modern endpoint management capabilities to Horizon, helping organizations:

• Reduce Day 2 operational burden: Automated lifecycle management for Horizon desktops eliminates the need for reimaging while streamlining patching, OS updates, and configuration management.
• Consolidate tools and simplify operations: Organizations already using Workspace ONE UEM for mobile devices or physical desktops, like Windows PCs, can use the same console and extend the same policies to Horizon—reducing tool sprawl and improving efficiency.
• Improve security posture: Consistent, automated enforcement of configurations, patches, and updates helps IT keep virtual desktops and apps secure.

With Workspace ONE UEM, Horizon environments become more agile, easier to maintain, and significantly more cost‑effective.

Delivering a Consistent, High-Performing Horizon Experience

User experience isn’t just a productivity factor—it’s a cost factor. Long logon times, slow applications, and unpredictable performance can create a cascade of support tickets and lost productivity.

Workspace ONE Experience Management for Horizon provides the visibility and insights needed to deliver stable, high performing virtual desktops at scale, empowering IT teams with:

• Realtime insight into logon performance and bottlenecks: Identify what’s slowing down user sessions before they impact productivity.
• Visibility into app slowdowns and system health: Monitor application performance and underlying desktop metrics to quickly pinpoint root causes.
• Faster issue resolution—and proactive prevention: Analytics, correlation, and automated actions help IT resolve issues quickly and prevent them from reoccurring.

Experience Management for Horizon moves IT from reactive troubleshooting to proactive experience monitoring and optimization.
