Thinstall Virtualization Suite Overview

Thinstall Application Virtualization Suite reduces deployment costs by eliminating runtime conflicts and speeds time to market. Thinstall virtually eliminates QA testing against multiple platforms and other applications, allowing a faster time to market and ensures a flawless end user experience. "Thinstall is a robust, self-contained application virtualization solution that requires no client-side agents or supporting server infrastructure. Thinstall’s “clean” architecture makes it suitable to a wide range of deployment scenarios, including environments in which traditional agent-based products would be inappropriate"

Thinstall for Corporate IT

Version 3.1 significantly reduces the costs associated with software deployment and provides significant reductions in the time associated with regression testing, application deployment and end user support instances.

The unique, client-less architecture allows “Thinstalled” applications to be run from any LAN, WAN, USB, CD-Rom drive, etc., with zero-footprint on the host PC. The applications run exclusively in user mode, ensuring seamless execution on locked-down desktops with no device drives installed, enabling administrations to maintain a secure, clean and stable user desktop and consequently, a heightened level of security.

Thinstall can transparently stream large applications from a shared network drive with no client or server software to install, as well as run the application “off-line” on the PC.

Thinstall for ISVs and Software Publishers

Thinstall enables software companies to package your application into a single self-contained EXE that ensures your applications run conflict-free and without requiring installation.

Thinstall provides an application ‘sandbox’ which protects the local OS from modifications that could affect stability or security and also enables applications to be run safely from restricted user accounts without local installation.

Thinstall does this with no noticeable runtime performance impact or source code changes; the Thinstall Virtual OS technology component is less than 300K on disk and occupies only 1 MB RAM at runtime. Thinstall isolates only the applications and does not require another virtual machine instance.
