About:
DCV Viewer is the client application for the NICE DCV high-performance remote display protocol. It enables secure access to remote desktops and applications running on cloud or on-premises servers. The viewer is optimized for high-latency networks and demanding workloads like 3D graphics and video streaming.
Key Features:
  • High-performance streaming for 2D/3D applications
  • Support for multiple monitors and high-resolution displays
  • Integrated audio streaming and USB redirection
  • Hardware acceleration via NICE DCV protocol
Use Cases:
  • Remote access to GPU-accelerated workstations in the cloud
  • Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) for engineering and design
  • Secure remote administration of servers
Alternatives:
  • Microsoft Remote Desktop – Standard RDP client; lacks DCV's specialized graphics acceleration
  • VNC Viewer – General-purpose screen sharing; lower performance for 3D workloads
