Learn how Zscaler can replace your VDI with a powerful, agentless, security-centric alternative.

Zscaler offers an agentless, browser-based alternative to VDI for secure application access on unmanaged devices.

 

Zscaler’s cloud native VDI alternative, including Browser Isolation, Data Protection, and Browser Access, offers three advantages:

  • Simplicity: No need to deploy and maintain agents or expensive VDI infrastructure.
  • Speed: Users get fast, seamless access to SaaS and private applications.
  • Security: Data security protects data moving to and from corporate applications.
