White Paper: A New Vision for Desktop Management

Desktop management has remained largely unchanged over the past few years. Application provisioning and management (delivery, installation, configuration, auditing, and updates) is at the core of the challenges associated with desktop management. In the past, in order to provide applications to users; the applications had to be installed on each and every computer manually, by allowing the users to have full admin rights to the desktop, or dispatching desktop technicians.   While simple in theory, this approach is expensive, unmanageable, and unsecured. Nowadays, the IT can take its pick from several approaches to management that have evolved, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks.

This whitepaper explains why and how we can make this approach better.
