  • Evalaze

  • The application is packaged in a single, self contained EXE file which can be used instantly. When the final EXE file exceeds a size of 10 MB a DAT file is automatically created as primary data container. That allows you to use different applications without any installation on the host PC or server. The usage of virtualized software does not create entries in the registry and none DLL files are compiled on the host PC. All information which are required and the needed libraries are included in the EXE file. All User data and documents are saved in a sandbox. The sandbox can be placed to the same location like the EXE or at any other place. The evalazed application can run locally on the client or even run from portable hardware like USB devices. Therefore the usage on many different client scenarios is possible.Also the easy deployment, the usability on clients without administrative rights and the possibility to use different versions of software at the same time is comfortable. Because you avoid changes in the system the security of these systems is warranted, all changes remain in the sandbox. »

  • Microsoft Application Virtualization

  • Microsoft Application Virtualization is an application virtualization and application streaming solution from Microsoft. It was acquired by Microsoft during the acquisition of Boston, Massachusetts-based Softricity (SoftwareWow!) on July 17, 2006. Softgrid represents Microsoft's entry to a new avenue of virtualization product, alongside their existing Hyper-V package, Microsoft Virtual Server, Microsoft Virtual PC, and other products newly announced in 2006, such as System Center Virtual Machine Manager, the latter of which is designed for "Datacenter Virtualization".OverviewMicrosoft Application Virtualization platform allows applications to be deployed in real-time to any client from a virtual application server. It removes the need for local installation of the applications. Instead, only the App-V client needs to be installed on the client machines. All application data is permanently stored on the virtual application server. Whichever software is needed is either streamed or locally cached from the application server on demand and run locally. The App-V stack sandboxes the execution environment so that the application does not make changes to the client itself (OS File System and/or Registry). App-V applications are also sandboxed from each other, so that different versions of the same application can be run under App-V concurrently. This approach enables any application to be delivered without making any changes to its code LUN. »

  • FilePacker

  • FilePacker is a 32-bit Windows application that can be used to temporarily remove the runtime engines that are used by some programming languages. It comes with a wizard-orientated design interface that enables you to easily and quickly create a stand-alone executable of your software for easier distribution. FilePacker can accomplish this by placing the runtime engines and other project files into a self-extracting executable that is extracted to one of the twenty build in extraction directories. FilePacker also has the capability to compress the project files by using the zlib compression library. You can even protect your executable with a password or you can display a dialog box, with a progress bar, that will display the percentage of data that has been extracted. After extracting the project files, FilePacker can launch up to sixty-four executables simultaneously. FilePacker can also delete the extracted project files after the running executables are closed. »
