What is On-Premises Application Virtualization Software?

Application virtualization software allows applications to be run on various devices without being installed directly on the host operating system. This technology abstracts the application from the underlying hardware, enabling users to access applications remotely or on different devices while ensuring consistent performance and behavior. Application virtualization software packages applications in a virtual environment, which isolates them from the system, helping improve security, manageability, and compatibility across various platforms. It is commonly used in enterprise environments to reduce software installation conflicts, simplify updates, and provide secure access to critical applications. Compare and read user reviews of the best On-Premises Application Virtualization software currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.
