What is DeTOS?
Devon IT Terminal Operating System (DeTOS) is an embedded Thin Client
Operating System designed to be simple, secure, and centrally manageable.
DeTOS can be used to access hosted desktops using Microsoft Remote Desktop
Services, VMware Horizon View, Citrix XenApp or XenDesktop, web-based
applications, and more.
DeTOS Features
 Simple- Configuring a session out of the box is quick and painless using
the DeTOS intuitive web based control panel. The same control panel can
be used either locally from the thin client or remotely from the
management software.
 Modern- DeTOS can connect to hosted desktops using the industry’s best
protocols including Citric ICA Client, RDP, or VMware Horizon View.
 Centrally Managed- DeTOS-based terminals can be centrally managed
using Devon IT Echo Management Console.
 Echo is shipped as a virtual appliance, so it is easy to set up.
 Echo can automatically discover and inventory the thin clients on your
network.
 Echo has the concept of a default profile. Using a default profile,
additional thin clients are automatically configured when you plug them
into your network.
 Echo allows individual profiles for different users, including specific
Connections, Thin Client Settings, Passwords, and Customizable Desktop
Icons.
