note
  • Services displayed on the Workspaces homepage depends on your subscription. For example, VDI users with only Universal Client won't see Software Downloads and will be redirected to the homepage instead.
  • If you missed the installers, click the Software Downloads menu from the sidebar.

After setting up the appriopriate installer for your use-case, you can now start using RBA or VDI.

Peripheral devices​

Cloud Workspaces support various peripherals across RBA and VDI. For RBA, you can test and validate these connected devices before using it in your workspace. Refer to Validating peripheral devices in RBA guide for more details. You can also visit the VDI guide to learn more about the supported peripheral devices for remote desktops.

Workspaces Management​

Cloud Workspaces provides a management dashboard for admin users to configure their Active Directory. This setup is a one-time task that requires expertise in Active Directory and should be performed by qualified admins.
