Putting Application Virtualization to Work: Simplify IT Operations and Enable Business Strategies

Overview Application virtualization, a technology developed by Citrix to provide multi-user remote access to centralized business resources, enables companies of all sizes to gracefully accommodate changes in hardware, software and end-user location. This in turn reduces the cost, time and effort to keep up-to-date tools and information in the hands of IT users. The technology separates where software executes from where it is used. This effectively shelters applications, IT staff and users from the many variables in the physical desktop, laptop or other computing environment that often pose problems.
