or

 

an unigui application?

They are totally different solutions.

Terminal server should be faster (I remember it was also optimized for slow connections) but requires a paid license for each client.

A client program must be installed on each machine that accesses the server and I do not think Andorid and iOS are supported.
The usege on a smartphone or tablet may be very difficult.
 

A UNIGUI application is basically a web page + ajax and then is cross-platform by definition (Crhome, Firefox, Safari, IExplorer ...).

No paid license for each client.

On a slow connection it can perform poorly if the page is complex.

You can create very user friendly app for smartphones and tablets (Sencha Touch) ...

OK.

 

I know that are different platforms.

 

 

I have to decide if is a good idea, migrate my desktop apps to unigui.

 

Now, the users access to the apps with a terminal server in the cloud, and I need to determine if is a good idea to migrate the apps.

If you need a fast way to publish your windows applications on web, you can try this:

That solution is in some ways better then simple remote desktop, imho.

 

But in the long run building dedicated web application with UniGui would be a better solution.
