Make your computer resources work smarter.
For organisations that need more than one workstation, ASTER may offer an alternative to purchasing a separate full computer for every user. The best result depends on your workloads, hardware and licensing.
Multiple workstations
Let several users work at the same time from one suitable host PC, with separate displays and input devices.
Plan hardware costs
Evaluate whether a multi-seat configuration can reduce total equipment costs for your particular environment.
Less desktop clutter
Fewer individual system units may free up desk space and simplify the physical layout.
Central host PC
Keep core computing resources in one host system while assigning supported devices to each workstation.
Practical deployment
Review your user count, applications, peripherals and room layout before selecting a configuration.
Guided setup
Get help planning a suitable setup, checking compatibility and understanding the installation process.
How multi-user computing works
ASTER creates separate workstations on a supported Windows host. Each station uses assigned hardware and shares the host computer’s available resources.
Assess the host PC
Check CPU, RAM, graphics outputs, storage and the applications users need.
Connect devices
Connect compatible monitors, keyboards, mice and other required peripherals.
Configure ASTER
Install and activate the software, then assign devices to each workstation.
Test every seat
Confirm users can sign in and run their required applications smoothly.
