Dynamic Application Layering For Any Windows Desktop
FlexApp layering dynamically delivers applications to any Windows desktop environment without affecting the underlying base image or operating system. The solution supports VDI, physical PCs and laptops, and cloud based workspaces such as Microsoft AVD (formerly WVD), Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, VMware Horizon, Nutanix Frame, and Amazon WorkSpaces. The new FlexApp One feature enables seamless Microsoft Endpoint Manager deployment and distribution by any file transfer method for flexible online and offline use! Innovative and industry-first features such as Click-to-Layer (apps on-demand), FlexApp Cache, and seamless support of cloud object-based storage, make FlexApp the logical "go-to" application layering choice for any organization.

| Traditional App Delivery | FlexApp or FlexApp One | |
|---|---|---|
| Base image management | Time consuming for each app installed | Zero modifications required for each attached app |
| Number of base images required | Multiple, usually at least one per department, more if per user | Very few, perhaps as few as one |
| User downtime | Occurs frequently | Zero user downtime, apps can go live without rebooting |
| “Windows rot” | Base images degrade with every install/uninstall | Base images remain clean, unmodified |
| Application updates for OS changes | Applications must be reinstalled | Applications do not need to be reinstalled/repackaged |
| Handling dozens / hundreds of apps | Problems are compounded | Greatly eases the burden of application delivery |
