WORKSPACES MANAGER V4.0
WorkSpaces Manager (WSM) for Amazon WorkSpaces, supercharges and simplifies a company’s investment in the Amazon WorkSpaces Platform. Created by Nuvens Consulting, a leading Amazon End User Computing partner, to compliment and automate the Amazon WorkSpaces Platform.
WorkSpaces Manager is a comprehensive internal console to help you manage your WorkSpaces at scale. WSM will ensure your environment is more secure, provide you a deeper understanding of user behaviour and make sure your WorkSpace estate is always cost optimised.

WSM 4.0 Features
Management
LOCATION – Quickly identify where in the world a WorkSpaces user is logging on from
WORKSPACE MONITORING – Understand what time a user logs on and logs off. Including how long a user is idle for.
PERFORMANCE MONITORING – Notification to take proactive action if a user is regularly hitting CPU or memory constraints.
AUTO-REBOOT OF UNHEALTHY WORKSPACES – Automation of the reboot/move host management to keep WorkSpaces Healthy.
PASSWORD REMINDERS – Users will automatically be informed that their WorkSpaces password needs to be changed.
API INTEGRATION – Integrate into your existing external applications (e.g. Service Now), therefore automating the business processes of managing your WorkSpaces desktop.
Cost Efficiency
PROACTIVE RIGHTSIZE – WSM monitors the user’s CPU, memory and usage of the WorkSpace to provide administrators the option of optimising their WorkSpace. This could mean upgrading a WorkSpace if it is being overworked, or downgrading if its tasks do not require a WorkSpace of that size. This process can also be automated without an administrator’s intervention.
UNUSED WORKSPACES – Quickly find WorkSpaces that haven’t been used for a period of time. This process can be automated to either downgrade the WorkSpace to the lowest specification, or complete termination after a set period of time.
ALWAYS OPTIMISED – WSM will change the pricing plan based on the user’s hourly usage of that month to either Always–On or Hourly.
ORPHANED WORKSPACES – Find WorkSpaces with no Active Directory user attached.
COST HISTORY – Review the previous 12 months WorkSpaces spend in one screen.
For Admins
EASY SEARCH – Find a WorkSpace quickly (including part searches) by user name, WorkSpace ID, OS, e-mail address, client IP address, WorkSpace IP address, directory, bundle, tags & more.
GREATER SECURITY WITH WSM GRANULAR ROLES – No need to grant admins access to the AWS Console to manage and create WorkSpaces. Over 15 different roles can be defined through WSM, including limiting an administrator to a specific region, directory or tag (e.g. department).
QUICK CONTROL – Quickly find your user through ‘Easy Search’ and troubleshoot via WSM using RDP or your preferred shadowing software.
AUTO-DELETE – Create rules for the deletion of a WorkSpace. This could be for unused WorkSpaces after a defined number of days, or a fixed time period for users such as contractors.
COPY USER – Quickly copy a user in the organisation. Provide the new user the same WorkSpace image, applications and performance as their colleague.
RAPID DEPLOY- Create 1000s of WorkSpaces in one go via the bulk import function.
MULTI-DOMAIN – Multi-domain and multi-forest aware, allowing administrators to control their entire estate via WSM.
MULTI-ACCOUNT – The ability to manage WorkSpaces across multiple AWS accounts.
