Overall Satisfaction with Parallels Remote Application Server (Parallels RAS)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Hello There. We use Parallels Remote Application Server (Parallels RAS) as primary remote access path for all remote workers. We have arround 200 internal stations accesed from external by few hundreds users.
The main problem we always have is to Patch the server, and keep it up with the latest updates. Last time the server was upgraded, we had to manually reconfigure from zere the new server, because it was no way to upgrade Parallels Remote Application Server (Parallels RAS), or to export/import the settings.
Support is very professional, but no success. Right now we have to do patches, but of the previous experience, we are afraid to touch it.
Thanks, [...].
