| In the case of NComputing, you need to wait for the delivery of NComputing thin clients. It takes some time and you get a well-working system. | In the case of NComputing, you need to wait for the delivery of NComputing thin clients. It takes some time and you get a well-working system. | ||
| - | In the case of ASTER, if your PC has 2 video outputs you can organize 2 workplaces based on 1 PC in 5 minutes. As ASTER has a fully functional 1 month trial period it is possible to check different HW configurations with the necessary number of workplaces. If you need more video outputs you need just to buy Graphics cards which could be delivered fast. Usually, a PC has 2 video outputs, so ASTER integration is simple in the case of organizing a multiseat system with 2 workplaces on 1 PC. But in the case of more workplaces, it is necessary to check HW parameters carefully. The PC should have enough power and the heat dissipation system good enough. | + | In the case of ASTER, if your PC has 2 video outputs you can organize 2 workplaces based on 1 PC in 5 minutes.

| The ASTER integration with 2 workplaces on 1 PC is the most simple configuration for the integration as you just need to install ASTER SW and set up workplaces. As a result of this simplicity over half of all deployments have this configuration. | The ASTER integration with 2 workplaces on 1 PC is the most simple configuration for the integration as you just need to install ASTER SW and set up workplaces.
