Here's some of the reasons....sm - My 2 cents

Posted: Mar 12th, 2019 - 10:48 am In Reply to: Can someone tell me what exactly is VDI and why - it is hated so much?

Most common complaints I've seen and some I've experienced myself:
1. Most MTs have to buy a new computer and the specs are of the caliber that you can't get a cheap one. Several hundred bucks.
2. Many have taken anywhere between 4 hours to days for them to install the software once the install started of the program.
3. Very slow program on connecting and they blame your internet. I personally live in an area where the internet speeds are above the average for the country and they still blamed my internet for it taking up to 2 minutes each time I add a CC to a report. Seriously? Also going from report to report is slower than outside of VDI - so as we know time is $$$ and this crap costs us money in lost productivity. They don't care.
4. When you connect to their system you're connecting to their servers which are Windows 7 - and Microsoft is going to stop supporting that this year. They mandate we have top of the line stuff yet they have very old software on their end. I know, shake your head.
