The settings include hardware settings like screen resolutions as well as properties for connections like RDP, Citrix ICA or VMware View. Firmware updates are possible as well as VNC to the client. It is possible to define certain groups and hand down all or specific settings to sub groups in the client's hierarchy, therefore supporting large networks of Thin Clients. The Management Console itself is a web application and with an optimized iPhone version. ==Founding and awards== LISCON Informationstechnologie GmbH was founded in 2000 in Klagenfurt, Austria. In 2002, LISCON received the innovation and research award of Carinthia, Austria. ==Competitors== Competitors in the market place include: Wyse, Igel and Neoware beside others. Partners are VXL, HP and Fujitsu. ==External links== LISCON Information Technology corporate website
