Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Application Server

It works like a dream. We use Microsoft Application Server for our remote users to be able to access internal applications. It also basically eliminates the need for us to install applications on each client machine. This saves time and money. It centralizes multiple applications into one platform.
  • Great at being able to deploy to all users.
  • Very little maintenance is required and generally very reliable.
  • Centralized management of all applications.
  • Wished Microsoft would offer better support options that are cheaper.
  • Updates sometimes require restarts which cause downtime.
  • More support for 3rd part software vendors.
  • All of our applications are now centralized into one place.
  • RIO was achieved within the first few months by eliminating the need to patch and deploy to multiple sites.
  • Our overall business objective has been achieved by being able to free up IT jobs to perform other duties.
It has a similar feature to what Microsoft Application Server has but at a greater cost and also having to deal with another vendor when we could use a full Microsoft Stack for better training and support.
Overall we have been extremely happy with our deployment of Microsoft Application Server. It has cut costs across the board and freed up IT staff.

Microsoft Application Server is great to centralize management, patching, and deployment of all your business internal applications for internal and external users. It's great for enterprise deployments but a little overkill for smaller deployments of under 100 users.
