Application Virtualization
Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) transforms applications into centrally managed services that are never installed and don’t conflict with other applications.
IT professionals and end-users alike face challenges in today’s work environment. End-users speak many languages, are geographically disperse and may not be connected to corporate networks all times. IT must meet the needs if these users, and provide solutions that are fast, flexible and reliable. App-V can help with the challenges you face day to day and enable your business to be more flexible and responsive to changing needs.
Application Virtualization Made Easy
With App-V users simply click to launch applications that are available, anytime. They don’t have to wait for applications to install and reboot to start using new applications. Updates are a breeze! Moving to a new PC or a new version of Windows? Simply sign on to your new computer and your applications are available on demand.
With App-V it’s easy for IT to transform traditional applications into centrally managed, virtual applications. You can use powerful, but simple tools to create virtual applications. Create standard MSI-based packages that are ready to deploy with existing infrastructure, or take advantage of built-in deployment and management.
Flexible Management Built right in
App-V enables IT to use the built-in management to stream applications to users on demand and allow users to update applications without disconnecting or rebooting. Assign applications to users using Active Directory, and retire applications quickly by removing the assignment – no uninstall required. You can also track application licensing and meter usage.
App-V integrates with System Center Configuration Manager, so you can manage virtual and physical applications, along with hardware and software inventory, operating system and patch deployment, and more.
