Manage virtual machine's power and start a viewer. Period. No more funcionalities (not sure if you need something more sophisticated...).

Hey all,
I wonder…coincidentally we started to explore simplified and modern interface for use cases like yours.
It’s by no means ready yet, but I wonder what you guys think about [1].
It’s just a proof of concept but the goals are the same, it’s browser-based but much more lightweight than the current GWT Basic User Portal

Thanks,
michal

As a last resource we can use the web admin but the purpose is to have a few thin clients which would start the client at boot time so it's more confortable for users, plus most times the web admin becomes slow after a while.
