Legacy Applications
Extend the Life of Your Legacy Applications
Many enterprises have access to updated versions of software from major publishers but keep older versions to maintain application-specific data. On the other hand, many line of business applications are designed for a particular operating system. Often these leverage outdated middleware or runtime libraries, creating conflicts on modern operating systems.
Our Cloudpaging container’s unique disposition layers enables even the most complex legacy applications to be packaged and seamlessly deployed across any modern Windows desktop and multi-cloud environment.
