Wiewelhove GmbH Customer Case Study on VDI Implementation

This case study details the transition of Wiewelhove GmbH, a German pharmaceutical contract manufacturer, from an aging Citrix terminal server environment to a modern Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) using Omnissa Horizon® and Omnissa App Volumes. The objective of this transition was to enhance user experience, operational agility, and long-term planning capabilities in response to rising service demands. The deployment was executed in collaboration with Global Information Distribution GmbH, ensuring a seamless transition. The new VDI environment significantly improved the performance of critical applications, including Microsoft Teams and multimedia tools, while simplifying IT administration. The centralized management afforded by Horizon and App Volumes allowed for faster updates and reduced administrative overhead. Wiewelhove reports that the new infrastructure provides predictable performance and licensing for the next five years, alleviating the uncertainties associated with annual renegotiations. This modernization positions Wiewelhove to better support the development and production of essential medicines, contributing positively to public health.
