App virtualisation

Get next-generation application virtualisation and delivery for your apps with Numecent Cloudpaging™.

The problem

Whilst App-V is unbeatable for most enterprise virtualisation, there are certain types of applications that Microsoft recommend should not be virtualised using the technology. These include applications that start services at boot time, require device drivers, are part of the OS, use COM+, etc.

We want to decouple the OS and application layers. We need a simple way to do it.

We’re trying to virtualise all of our apps, but even half is proving to be a challenge.

We’re looking for an alternative to App-V now rather than when support expires.

We’re having trouble virtualising complex applications and apps with drivers.

My users need to run legacy and modern Office applications simultaneously.

Application virtualisation with Cloudpaging

Virtualise 99.9% of your apps!

These limitations mean that you can’t fully realise the benefits of application virtualisation. Using Cloudpaging™ technology, Algiz Technology will virtualise applications that can’t be virtualised using MS App-V so that you can enjoy a fully virtualised application estate.

Virtualise with Cloudpaging

Cloudpaging transforms native software delivery, deployment, and provisioning to and from the cloud, datacenter, and desktop. It lets you package and deliver any Windows application to any Windows desktop – VDI, Physical, or BYOD.

01

Virtualise any Windows app

With Cloudpaging you can virtualise ANY Windows app, including the ‘tricky’ apps that legacy technologies like App-V and ThinApp can’t handle.

02

Run apps at native speeds

Virtualised apps behave as if locally installed, with no compromise on performance. That includes 3D graphics, HD content and CPU-intensive apps.

03

Reduce VDI costs

Application virtualisation separates apps from the OS and uses the power of the end device, so the infrastructure is a fraction of the cost of VDI!

04

Run virtualised apps offline

Even if your users lose connection to the server, your apps will still be available without the loss of licence control!

05

Dynamic updates

Application updates happen in near real-time with no need for maintenance windows. Rollbacks are instantaneous.

06

Security built in

Applications are encrypted, compressed, and delivered over a secure connection preventing theft, malware injection, and other security threats.

Cloudpaging in three steps

The Cloudpaging system contains three components that deliver a native desktop application experience to end users without a traditional installation. The three components that work together are the Cloudpaging Studio, Server, and Player.

01

Create/Publish

Cloudpaging™ Studio prepares the application for automated deployment, updates, and access settings based upon the predetermined permission levels within your organization. With Cloudpaging™ Studio you can package an app for the lowest common denominator of Windows OS, and you won’t need to repackage that same app when you move operating systems.

02

Deliver

The Cloudpaging™ Server can be in the Cloud of your choice, or your company’s own on-premises server. Once your apps are on the Cloudpaging™ Server, your IT department can use virtually any provisioning tool, including Microsoft® SCCM, for managing application deployments and updates to your workforce on their virtual or physical devices.

03

Execute

The Cloudpaging™ Player  “plays” the provisioned applications on the end users’ virtual or physical devices. The Player can be configured to be visible or hidden to the end user and accessed with single-sign-on (SSO) if desired. You can keep an eye on usage and empower your employees with self-service options.

Banking and finance

The nature of complex apps and infrastructures used within Financial institutions makes them difficult to package and deliver to end-users. We helped one of the largest tier-one banks to package their most complex apps with Cloudpaging™ and deliver them to 70,000 users using their existing delivery tools.

Happy customers
