The Orchestrator client is an easy-to-use desktop application that you can use to perform daily administration tasks such as importing packages, running and scheduling workflows, and managing user permissions. The Orchestrator client also serves as an IDE for creating or customizing workflows.

For more information about using the Orchestrator client interface and how to create workflows, actions, packages, and other custom Orchestrator elements, see Using the VMware vCenter Orchestrator Client and Developing with VMware vCenter Orchestrator.

The Web operator provides an example of the orchestration functions that Web views can provide to end users in browsers, without requiring that those users use the Orchestrator client.
