PolicyPak Software, the leader in desktop settings management for Windows desktops, and FSLogix, the leading innovator in cloud-native digital workspace solutions for the enterprise, today announced the completion of integration testing and joint solution support, to provide better managed and higher performance Windows virtual desktop. The combined use of the products drastically improves user experience, reduces administrative costs, and leverages existing Windows 7 and Windows 10 investments in both public and private cloud implementations.
With its revolutionary application masking approach, FSLogix provides single image management for desktops, laptops and VDI. While PolicyPak performs total settings management for applications and IT settings on desktops, laptops and VDI sessions. By working together the combined solution enables organizations to overcome more challenges that have prevented the widescale adoption of the enterprise virtual desktop.
