The Challenge: Homegrown application delivery to Windows and Mac devices
The Denmark location, Techedge ApS, required an application publishing solution that could deliver customized television-related software to its customers. The company—which defines itself as an independent software vendor (ISV) as well as a managed service provider (MSP)–serves applications to various desktop devices, including Windows and Mac®. Techedge needed an application publishing solution that could serve more than 250 concurrent users at once.
The Solution: Parallels RAS offers seamless virtualization solution
Following intense deliberation, the Techedge team decided to install Parallels® Remote Application Server (RAS) to provide a comprehensive, affordable application delivery solution to his customers. Parallels RAS allowed the ISV/MSP company to provide seamless application delivery to Windows and Mac devices. It also plans to support Microsoft Surface devices at a later point.
Key Benefits: Straightforward, easy-to-install application delivery solution
Techedge experienced many benefits after switching to Parallels RAS. The most important, however, was the fact that installing the Parallels RAS high-availability solution was easy to achieve in a short period of time. During the lightning-quick installation and implementation, Techedge took advantage of time-saving management wizards that helped the company deliver state-of-the-art, television-related software to its customers worldwide.
With the Parallels RAS high-availability solution, Techedge has the confidence it needs to securely deliver television software to its customers—without experiencing unacceptable service disruptions.
“Building out Parallels RAS virtualization was incredibly easy. It has helped us supply broadcast software to our customers more efficiently.“
