Parallels Remote Application Server for a Marine fleet

In our marine operation department, new applications require that we control all inventory in the company fleet. This application is not web-based. To run this application we should have access to the server remotely; without this application, we mistakenly buy materials twice or even more. To solve this we needed something to control this. The problem is that communication between ships and head office is very costly and slow.

To install Parallels Remote Application Server in our host server was simple. To install it in company ships was even easier--anyone can do it. The best part for me is that they can keep shortcut icons of the application directly on the user's Windows desktop.

Actually, we don't use this function in company ships, but I use it in testing. It was nice to know that you can convert normal applications to web applications in a different way.

In order to access this server remotely using Windows Remote Desktop and open network ports, which was very risky, Parallels Remote Application Server provided what we needed in one step.
