2X Software Transforms Facebook into a Powerful Tool for Business

Submitted by on August 8, 2012 – 12:08 pmNo Comment

2X releases free Facebook App for secure access to Windows applications and desktops, based on its proven RDP Client technology making Facebook a tool for business.

Dallas, TX, Aug 8, 2012 – 2X Software today announced that now Facebook users for the first time can access Windows applications and desktops seamlessly from their Facebook accounts with the 2X Client App for Facebook, running on Windows PCs and Notebooks.

Until today, Facebook users had to switch between their Facebook Web Interface and external software products to connect to their business Desktops and Applications. With the newly released 2X Facebook App any Windows application or desktop can be seamlessly published directly from the Facebook account via a secure RDP SSL remote connection. The 2X Client for Facebook is free, easy to install, and compatible with any Microsoft Terminal Server, Microsoft Hyper-V as well as VMware ESX and ESXi Server by using 2X ApplicationServer XG.

“By introducing this new 2X Client for RDP/Remote Desktops, we are targeting companies that want to offer their employees and partners who use Facebook simple and secure remote access to their business Windows applications and desktops,” stated Nikolaos Makris, CEO of 2X Software. “In the coming months we will introduce additional Remote Access Apps that will allow Facebook users to share Applications and Desktops with friends directly from their Facebook account. All this is part of our continued commitment to provide seamless application and desktop access solutions to users around the world.”

The free 2X Client for Facebook is available here.
