One solution Focus Technology Solutions’ is best known for is Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) or End User Computing (EUC).

Focus has developed a VDI methodology and a User Acceptance Test (UAT) process. For the UAT, Focus actually provides all the hardware, software, support and professional services for a 30 day period. During the UAT phase a sampling of users will get first-hand experience with an actual Virtual Desktop. The goal of the UAT phase is to execute a robust and structured test of key functionality identified during the Assess Phase as critical business requirements. During this phase the success criteria for the UAT are defined and documented. The results and findings of UAT will be documented in a report. The document will also include details on the feasibility of the desired solution and the requirements that are necessary to make the functionality available to the users. Any issues and recommended solutions will be outlined. If the UAT successfully meets the defined success criteria the process will proceed to the Design Phase and ultimately Implementation Phase.
