Access to UDS Enterprise from Chromebooks is via HTML5 through Google Chrome browser, one of the Google services integrated into these devices. Once inside, users can access their Windows and Linux virtual desktops and their Windows virtual applications as usual.

Among the many advantages provided by UDS Enterprise compatibility with Chromebooks are:
