Other clients can include items such as an iOS device (iPhones and iPads), Android-based tablets, and smartphones including Amazon Kindle Fire and Microsoft Surface tablets.

For organizations that deploy tablets as the end device, they are strongly encouraged to provide a keyboard solution with the tablets. Today, most of the users are native users of conventional keyboard and mouse solutions. Tablet devices offer a new type of input that many users are still growing accustomed to. While the user experience is often enjoyable, trying to type a long e-mail or perform some of the regular tasks in certain organizations can prove tedious.

The VMware Horizon Client for the iPad, for example, supports Bluetooth keyboards such as the Zagg Mate (http://www.zagg.com/accessories/logitech-ipad-2-keyboard-case).
