VMware Horizon

ControlUp’s native integration with VMware Horizon gives Horizon administrators full-stack visibility to their Horizon environment, from hypervisor and datastores, to connection servers and desktop pools, to VMs, all the way down to specific user sessions and processes, enabling seamless management of their Horizon environment, right from the ControlUp console. Using the console, Horizon administrators can detect, troubleshoot, and remedy the root cause of any issue in their environment, wherever it is.

Excessive logon times, long application launch times, high protocol latency, or bandwidth limitations can all have a dramatic and negative effect on end users’ experience. Resolving issues quickly avoids lost productivity and frustration for end users. ControlUp provides early detection of issues that might impact end-users’ experience, and allows administrators to quickly dig deeper to find the root cause of these issues and fix them.

ControlUp offers a rich collection of powerful multi-target management actions and an extendable Script Actions platform for rapid and effortless maintenance tasks that minimize downtime. Horizon administrators get enhanced Horizon environment management capabilities, including built-in actions, script actions, Automated Actions, and security policy permissions, built specifically to manage Horizon entities.

In addition to basic user actions like ‘Logoff’ and ‘Send Message’, ControlUp gives Horizon administrators access to a rich set of contextual management actions that enable proactive troubleshooting of end user-related issues. A partial list includes: Analyze Blast / PCoIP session , Blast / PCoIP Bandwidth usage details, Add / Remove Horizon Instant Clone, and many more.

ControlUp can support multiple deployments, versions, and architectures, which are useful for testing, staging, and production segregation. Supporting Horizon 7.x, Horizon Apps, Horizon Cloud, Horizon VMC Cloud on AWS, Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure and Horizon Cloud on IBM Cloud, ControlUp’s all-inclusive dashboard provides a unified view of every virtual machine and user session in your environment and allows you to take action from the same console, uniting all your deployments in a single view.

Improve Horizon management, optimize resources, and plan long-term fixes by leveraging historical data. ControlUp Insights seamlessly aggregates data for historical analysis and offers a plethora of out-of-the-box reports, including user activity, user experience, application activity, resource consumption (hosts, servers, and even processes data) and system health.
