Simplified, cost-effective deployment of applications
Application Virtualisation separates applications from the devices and operating systems they run on and the resources they require. Applications become instantly accessible, simpler to manage and, ultimately, more stable.
Application virtualisation delivers cost reduction by:
- Avoiding expensive hardware refreshes
- Eliminating costly application regression testing
- Reducing or removing deployment costs
- Simplifying application management
If you are considering Application Virtualisation as part of your organisation’s IT strategy ask yourself some of the questions below and find out today how your business is set to benefit.
| Questions: |
Answers: |
| What is the current cost of rolling out and patching applications? |
Virtual applications have a much lower cost of delivery and roll out than installed applications. |
| When rolling out a new application do you need to test your whole estate of applications for compatibility (regression testing)? |
With virtual applications, regression testing is massively reduced or even eliminated, because virtual applications cannot adversely affect installed applications. |
| Do you remote offices and field based staff experience the same performance as those in headquarters? |
Centralised virtual applications give remote and field users the same performance as if within the data centre; only video images and inputs are copied over the wire. |
| How do you provide secure remote access? |
If applications are delivered centrally from the data centre, data security cannot be breached by users copying files to their local hard drive, so the business retains full control of its data. |
| How often do you perform a hardware refresh on your desktop estate? |
Centralised application virtualization eliminates the need for high performance hardware at the user’s desk. Older PCs can be employed as simple access points into the data centre. |
