7. PHASE I Benchmark with Stratusphere™ FIT Assess and quantify machine, user, and infrastructure metrics. Provide visibility into user persona and authored data. Access applications for usage and master image strategy. Define the baseline user experience. Design base image on actual usage metrics. Group users into appropriate tiers based on consumption. 7

8. PHASE I Visibility Throughout Is Key 8 Workers’ Desktops Target Image How are users spending their time? What are they consuming? What is the baseline user experience? Are image resources adequate and available? Are problems developing? Constraints and/or avoidable crashes ahead?

9. PHASE I Summary of Benefits Collect data automatically. Accurate data — no lost work time for users. Reduce migration labor costs. Accurate metrics lead to accurate planning. Save on licensing costs. Identify apps that users have but never use. 9

13. PHASE IIPHASE I Summary of Benefits Better manage and optimize image creation. Manage one Master Image vs. 300. Achieve more migrations per day. Centralized migration operations eliminate most or all PC visits. Avoid loss of user files. Quickly revert to original Windows XP, preserving user personalizations and data. 13

15. PHASE IIIPHASE IIPHASE I Validate with Stratusphere™ UX Ongoing and proactive monitoring—the ability to quantify UX. Validate image changes to ensure optimal performance. Identify rogue entities and/or bottlenecks to quickly remediate issues. Enable "what-if" scenarios to plan for growth and changes. Get support for mixed VMware Mirage and VMware View environments with single pane-of-glass monitoring. 15

16. PHASE IIIPHASE IIPHASE I Measure for Success 16 Reporting to ensure equal-to-better user experience At-a-glance comparison of physical machines to Mirage-managed machines Easy to see results to quickly determine if users are reaping the benefits of the transformation

17. PHASE IIIPHASE IIPHASE I Summary of Benefits Prevent unplanned downtime. Get fewer post-migration calls to the Help Desk. Track system performance. See from the desktop to the data center, and across all networks. Measure success. Built-in reports provide accurate ROI and TCO data. 17

18. What a migration looks like when you simplify the process: Save money. Reduce migration labor costs; save on licensing costs. Save time. Reduce user downtime during migration; manage one image instead of 300. Use fewer resources. Centralize migration operations; manage fewer post-migration calls. Monitor proactively. Alert administrators to issues; prevent unplanned downtime. Keep end-users productive. Optimize performance; provision resources quickly. 18

19. Simplify the migration process — and execute it with speed and confidence. Migration Timeline T-3T-2T-1T-0Post-Migration Monitor and measure all hardware, operating systems, and applications. Easily discover all the metrics you need before the move. Define what migration success will mean to you. Define baseline of usage and user experience. Produce reports and use them to put a project plan together. Create a master image. Create and deploy a mirror-perfect image (and manage one image instead of 300). Conduct phased image deployment. Set triggers to let you know when post-migration performance is less than ideal — and drill down to see where the problem really is. Fix it before anyone reports it as an issue. Monitor and compare. Validate that migration worked properly. Generate reports that quantify success. Disaster recovery. Use pre-migration snapshot for recovery and repair, as needed. Recover systems due to lost, stolen, or broken PCs. 19

20. Imagine this: You controlled your migration instead of it controlling you. You migrated on time and on budget — with minimal downtime and optimum performance during and after the migration. 20
