And traditional application virtualization products often add undesirable overhead and still can\u2019t address all use cases. FSLogix enables enterprises to easily go from way too many images, to a single Unified Base Image, without repackaging applications, ever.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Using \u201cimage masking\u201d, a single Windows image can serve any number of users by presenting only what they\u2019re allowed to see. Applications are normally installed and run natively, without the performance impact associated with isolation or streaming products. FSLogix Apps is as simple as possible, with no sequencing or packaging of applications required.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">ULTIMATE DESKTOP FLEXIBILITY<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the ability to merge centralized profiles and applications from App Containers into the user\u2019s desktop, FSLogix offers the most flexible and powerful solution to transform workspace management that\u2019s available today.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FSLogix Apps 2.0 uses a unique approach in the industry, called Image Masking. This allows applications to be installed into any Windows environment, physical or virtual, exactly as intended by the software vendor, using the standard MSI or installation tools. With a superset of applications installed on one gold image, all users get the same image and FSLogix Apps simply hides all the apps they are not allowed to see. This can be managed at such a granular scale that Office Add-ins, browser plugins, printers, fonts, and any other element of a user\u2019s desktop may be customized instantly from one image. Add to this the ability to locate additional applications and profiles in remote volumes, and you have the simplest and most flexible profile and application delivery and management tool available.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FSLogix Apps is completely different than any other application delivery solution. Here are just a few of the unique benefits FSLogix Apps customers find the most useful:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">JAVA REDIRECTION<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Manage multiple Java Versions With Ease<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FSLogix Apps uses advanced filtering and a patent pending type of virtualization called image masking to enable Java redirection and our other core functionality. This process is transparent to the client operating system and integrates seamlessly with all Windows based infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">LICENSING<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Enforcing Application Entitlement<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Image Masking works with Active Directory to allow pass-through of authorized applications to a user workspace, creating fully customized, role-specific environments in real time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Recognized\u00a0 by\u00a0 leading\u00a0\u00a0 software\u00a0\u00a0 vendors\u00a0 like<span>\u00a0<\/span><u>Microsoft<\/u>\u00ae and<span>\u00a0<\/span><u>Citrix<\/u>\u00ae for solutions that enforce both user and device based software license control, FSLogix Apps provides a single method to provision applications across all your Windows\u2122 infrastructure while maintaining compliance and optimizing for your company\u2019s licensing agreements.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">PROFILE CONTAINERS<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Real-time access to User Profiles with no folder redirection<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Instead of placing all of the user\u2019s files on a network share like in the redirected files approach, FSLogix encapsulates the entire profile \u2013including the registry\u2013 in an in-guest container.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Eliminates file server bottleneck<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Eliminates the need for \u201cJust-in-time\u201d file copying<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Solves the problem of virtual applications running over the network<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dramatically reduces logon times and application launch times<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">APPLICATION CONTAINERS<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For environments with limited disk space or unique configuration<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FSLogix Apps Application Containers allow administrators\u00a0 to\u00a0 contain the data and executable files of an application in an in-guest container. Based on visibility and masking rules, applications are seamlessly attached to a user session and run as if locally installed in the base.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">TOP 10 REASONS TO USE FSLOGIX APPS<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Massively reduce the number of Windows gold images in your environment<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Eliminate silos\/pools in XenApp and VDI<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Make non-persistent VDI a reality<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Solve profile issues and eliminate folder redirection in VDI or XenApp<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Simplify DR\/BC for virtual desktops<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Implement VDI and DaaS without legacy overhead<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Manage multiple applications versions easily<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Simple version control and rollback for updates<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ensure license compliance for all users and all apps on all Windows infrastructures<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Granularity to feature level for Office add-ins, browser plugins, printer visibility, fonts and more<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">ABOUT FSLOGIX<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FSLogix is a leading innovator of solutions that enable the enterprise virtual workspace, reducing the amount of hardware, time and labor required to support cloud and virtual desktops.
