Application Packaging Application Discovery We determine versions, quantities, configuration and other technical data of software installed on all systems within the network and gather information on every application that needs to be packaged and deployed. We prepare applications for deployment by converting them to the MSI package format or by creating MSI Transform in accordance with agreed application packaging standards. Moreover, we can deliver Linux and MacOS packages. All delivered application packages are tested on target platforms in an environment equal to customers’ testing environment and verified to meet the requirements. We provide application virtualization/sequencing in App-V, ThinApp, and XenApp formats in coherence with the standards and best practices.
