Micro Focus Desktop Containers

We used Desktop Containers until recently to allow us to run applications within their own containers during migration to another operating system. We had a large number of employees we needed to migrate, and using this allowed us to do so with confidence. Users still had access to their applications before, during and after migration -- there was no interruption. We used it for a period of time following the migration as well, because we found our anti-virus caught fewer intrusions with the containers in operation (web browsers run within the containers were isolated, and if an attack occurred, we could easily remove the container and create a new one).

It allowed us to isolate applications so that they did not adversely interact with other applications.
They served as a virtual machine while we managed the migration to a new OS.
They helped us decrease malicious attacks because web browsers operating within a container could be terminated if an attack occurred.
They allowed us to quickly deploy applications across a diverse, global organization.

Container access and restrictions were a bit cumbersome to set up.
We would frequently have users report containers failing to work properly due to file size.
There was very little documentation we could provide to users during onboarding

We were able to migrate to a different OS 50% more quickly than in the past.
We saw a dramatic decrease in malicious attacks while using this product.
Our users were able to more quickly get access to the products they needed.
We no longer needed to worry about applications not playing nice with others since they were isolated
