A very complex application that not only stores the data but merges it to Word Documents and creates PDF documents on the fly which are emailed to clients.

Terminal Services in a Windows Server environment can enhance an enterprise’s software deployment capabilities for a variety of scenarios, allowing substantial flexibility in application and management infrastructure. When a user runs an application on Terminal Server, the application execution takes place on the server, and only keyboard, mouse and display information is transmitted over the network. Each user sees only his or her individual session, which is managed transparently by the server operating system, and is independent of any other client session.

Benefits

Terminal Services in Windows Server 2003 provides three important benefits.

 Benefit Description 
 
Rapid, centralised deployment of applications 
Terminal Server is great for rapidly deploying Windows-based applications to computing devices across an enterprise—especially applications that are frequently updated, infrequently used, or hard to manage.

When an application is managed on Terminal Server, and not on each device, administrators can be certain that users are running the latest version of the application.
 Low-bandwidth

Terminal Server considerably reduces the amount of network bandwidth required to access data remotely.

Using Terminal Server to run an application over bandwidth-constrained connections, such as dial-up or shared WAN links, is very effective for remotely accessing and manipulating large amounts of data because only a screen view of the data is transmitted, rather than the data itself.

 Windows anywhereTerminal Server helps users become more productive by enabling access to current applications on any device—including under-powered hardware and non-Windows desktops.

And because Terminal Server lets you use Windows anywhere, you can take advantage of extra processing capabilities from newer, lighter-weight devices such as the Pocket PC.

 
We highly recommend the use of Terminal Services to all of our clients for the sheer flexibility and enhanced support options it provides. 99% of support related issues can be resolved remotely for both user and server problems without the need for a technician to be sent on site which greatly reduces your maintenance fees.
