Welcome to the VMware Horizon Mirage 4.0 Reviewer’s Guide. Although Mirage is now on version 4.0, this is the first Reviewer’s Guide for the product. VMware acquired Wanova in 2012 and promptly integrated the Mirage product into the VMware End-User Computing suite to fill the gap of customizing and backing up physical computers. Horizon Mirage is now an integral part of the VMware Horizon Suite of enterprise desktop products. This reviewer’s guide enables you to evaluate Horizon Mirage.
