PC management firm Virtual Computer has announced its global value added reseller program.

NxTop, the company's PC management product, combines a bare-metal virtualization platform with a central management system to reduce PC management costs. NxTop will be available through authorized VARs and channel partners this month.

"A major pain point for organizations is managing the growing number of mobile workers and laptop users. VARs must have a PC management solution available that addresses these modern challenges," said John Lenon, sales director, Novosco Limited.

"NxTop addresses PC management through virtualization and tackles provisioning, publishing and patching, among additional benefits."

NxTop's features include:

One-to-many provisioning, publishing and patching of the base operating system including the ability to roll patches forward or backward if there is a failure at the end-point.

User data and profile backup and recovery with the ability to move a user from one computing device to another without any loss of data or productivity.

Security including trusted boot and cryptographic disk, with an enterprise key management system ensuring that computing environments cannot be tampered with and eliminating the concern of data leakage in the event a PC is lost or stolen.

Full policy-driven control of end-point computing devices including the ability to filter on particular types of USB devices, device expiation and remote disable of computers.

"VARs are a key component to our sales strategy and we look forward to growing relationships with partners that embrace virtualization as the solution to growing PC management problems," said Sandrijn Stead, vice president of sales, Virtual Computer.
