As a Citrix Ready partner, ChipPC offers thin client solutions designed for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops — so users get a strong HDX experience while IT keeps endpoints locked down and easy to replace.
What tends to matter
- Stable HDX / ICA connectivity from a minimal local OS
- Citrix Ready–oriented hardware choices for thin / zero clients
- Central image and policy control without heavy local Windows estates
- Fast swap-out when a desk device fails
How ChipPC is typically used
ThinX OS is a common fit when the desktop lives entirely in Citrix. Windows 11 IoT is chosen when local Windows components or policies are required alongside Citrix sessions. Xcalibur Global (ThinX) or XcaliburW (Windows) keeps the fleet aligned.

Many estates centre on Microsoft remote desktops: classic RDS/RDP, Azure Virtual Desktop, or Windows IoT endpoints that still need to behave like managed thin stations. ChipPC devices are built for that Microsoft-centric reality.
What tends to matter
- Reliable RDP / AVD session experience on compact hardware
- Windows 11 IoT when domain policy or local Windows apps are required
- ThinX OS when the endpoint should stay minimal and VDI-only
- Central monitoring and remote assistance across sites
How ChipPC is typically used
Windows IoT + XcaliburW is a natural pair for Microsoft-heavy fleets. ThinX OS + Xcalibur Global fits when users only need a locked connection into RDS/AVD and IT wants the smallest local attack surface.

Omnissa Horizon thin clients
Searching for a thin client for Omnissa Horizon (formerly VMware Horizon)? ChipPC designs thin clients and mini PCs as fixed Horizon endpoints — so users get a consistent Blast / PCoIP-class experience while IT keeps desks locked down, quiet and easy to replace.
Buyers comparing Horizon thin clients usually need three answers: which device, which OS (ThinX OS vs Windows 11 IoT), and how the fleet is managed. ChipPC covers that stack and can recommend a configuration from your Horizon version, protocol preference and site count.
What Horizon buyers typically need
- Reliable Omnissa Horizon / VMware Horizon desktop and published-app delivery
- Blast Extreme or PCoIP-class remote protocols depending on the environment
- Locked thin clients that do not become unmanaged local PCs
- Repeatable images across branches, campuses and multi-site rollouts
- A clear ThinX OS or Windows IoT path beside Horizon
How ChipPC Horizon deployments usually look
Deploy a ChipPC thin client or mini PC as the Horizon endpoint. Choose ThinX OS
when the device should only connect to Horizon. Choose Windows 11 IoT when local Windows apps or policies remain. Then manage the fleet with Xcalibur Global
(ThinX) or XcaliburW
(Windows).
