MyApps (Virtual Desktop)

UTech offers thin clients, virtual computers, and virtual applications. Thin clients are inexpensive, small, low-power computing devices where the operating system, applications, and computing power and storage are provided by a server. The experience for the person using the thin client is almost identical to someone using a regular PC desktop, but the systems are less expensive, more secure, and easier to manage. Virtual windows computers and virtual applications are also available at https://myapps.case.edu. This web page allows members of the CWRU community to log into a virtual windows PC from any web browser or open many applications without having to install the application on your local computer.
