- Easy and fast adaptation and migration from terminal legacy environments to thin clients through Ericom's drag & drop graphical keyboard mapping functionality,
- Smooth migration from terminal legacy environments to thin clients through the use of a full range of terminal fonts especially designed for this purpose.
According to Ericom Founder and CEO Eran Heyman, "We are delighted to be partnering with Wyse, the leader in thin-client technology. Together, Ericom and Wyse will be able to provide the market with a superbly cost effective and full-featured thin client.
