The service at a glance:
Large and small corporations wishing to have
a standard managed desktop environment will often have
many applications installed across hundreds or even thousands
of machines.
To control the environment and reduce the total cost
of ownership, applications need to install consistently,
without problems or conflicts, and be easily distributable
using tools such as native Microsoft Active Directory
(IntelliMirror) or other software distribution products.
The Application Packaging Service from Theseus provides
this functionality, by customising applications to a
company’s unique requirement, including application
configuration, user information, and application footprint
registration for software inventory tracking across the
organization.
