Using Microsoft App-V to Deploy the Rocket PASSPORT Terminal Emulator

With centralized management and simplified application deployment features, the latest Rocket PASSPORT version can be rapidly deployed to every user in real-time, regardless of whether they are in the office, on the road, in a remote site, or holding a meeting at the local coffee shop.Using Microsoft App-V to Deploy the Rocket PASSPORT Terminal Emulatorwe are pleased to announce support for Rocket PASSPORT PC to Host® when deployed within Microsoft's application virtualization (App-V) environments. As with other virtualization technologies, Microsoft's App-V can make applications, including the Rocket PASSPORT terminal emulator, readily available to every desktop in the enterprise.

Advantages of Using Rocket PASSPORT with App-V

Rocket PASSPORT PC to Host 2010, our secure terminal emulation software for Windows 7, has been successfully tested with Microsoft's App-V 4.5 and 4.6, joining the growing list of other supported virtualization technologies, including Citrix XenApp and VMware, that we support.

When virtualized with App-V, Rocket PASSPORT can be effectively deployed to hundreds or thousands of end-users within minutes. With our competitively priced license plans, easy migration paths and our extensive experience, organizations can quickly realize extravagant savings by simply replacing other terminal emulation packages such as Attachmate's EXTRA! or Micro Focus' Rumba.

About Microsoft App-V

Application virtualization (App-V) decouples applications from the Windows operating system and enables them to run as a network service. App-V's patented application virtualization, dynamic streaming delivery and centralized management technologies, make everything from deployment of upgrades to business continuity initiatives easier and faster with better agility. Highlights include:

Application virtualization - Enable Windows applications to run without the need to visit a desktop, laptop, or terminal server.

Dynamic streaming delivery - Applications are rapidly delivered, when needed, to laptops, desktops, and terminal servers. In most cases only a small percentage of the application is needed to launch the application.

Centralized, policy-based management - Virtual Application deployments, patches, updates, and terminations are more easily managed via policies, and administered through the App-V console or via your ESD system.
