Application Packaging Services

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.
