Parallels RAS and Device Redirection
IT staff are often overwhelmed by the numerous helpdesk requests to troubleshoot issues related to local services such as printing and audio on published resources. Parallels® Remote Application Server (RAS) reduces IT staff workload by providing an out-of-the box, easy-to-manage, and maintenance-free local device redirection.
Provide employees with a seamless experience on published application and desktop, enabling the use of local services such as printing, scanning, audio, USB, drives, and email. For instance, users can make a server-hosted Skype call using their own headset, or work on local files through server-hosted applications.
Universal Printing Redirection
Parallels RAS Universal Printing enables users to print on the local client while connected to RDSH or hypervisors such as Citrix XenServer, Microsoft Hyper-V, and VMware EXSi.
Ready out of the box and easy to use, Parallels RAS Universal Printing increases printing performance and response time when employees use local printers with server-based desktops or virtual applications. Clients can print directly to their local printers from the session without any extra configurations.
