1.3 – What's the difference

Spark View is quite different compared with other similar solutions:

• It is designed to be a replacement of native client, not a complementary solution.
• It is designed for speed. It’s even faster than our Java applet.
• It is feature rich, not feature less compared with native clients.
• Spark View only features:
  • RemoteApp (not Start program on connection)
  • Session Recording/Playback
  • Session Shadowing
  • Hyper-V console connection
  • Network Level Authentication
  • Windows 8 and 2012 with touch remoting support
  • XRDP (Linux) support
  • RD Web Access Portal Integration
  • OpenID integration
  • Support both PostScript and PCL printers.
  • Support more audio encodings. 80% less bandwidth usage (when playing audio) compared with other HTML5 solutions
  • Client side IME support. You can use client side IME directly (Microsoft RDC doesn't support client side IME).
