Remote Access - VMWARE and/or GotoMyPC

Asked by markc699 in VMware, Citrix, Remote Desktop/Terminal Services

Tags: vmware, remote, access, gotomypc

I am currently investigating various Remote Desktop/Virtual Desktop solutions for our corporate environment, and am unsure which path to take.  We are looking at implementing solutions for two scenarios:

1) Remote Access to machines for 200 fulltime staff. This will be for DR purposes and/or allowing our staff members to work outside of the office. All users have Windows 2000 desktops. For a quick solution,  I was looking at GotomyPC (which seems to work fine), or longer term, I was probably thinking about implementing a VMWARE VDI solution?

2)Remote Access to corporate network for staff who are based OFF-SITE at other locations i.e. behind other 3rd party companies networks. These staff members do not have dedicated machines at the primary corporate network site.

Here I was thinking of implementing a pool of PCs in our VMWARE environment and sharing them out by using GotomyPC. Our off-site staff members can then have full remote access to the corporate network, without our IT Dept having to manage a VPN infrastructure etc. Again, this would be a quick fix easy solution. The alternative again would be to possibly use a VMWARE VDI solution.

Any help/feedack here would be appreciated.
