DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/995b2e/real_world_experie) has
announced the addition of the "Real World Experiences of Endpoint
Virtualization" report to their offering. 

Endpoint virtualization is a catch-all term for a range of technologies - known
not only as endpoint virtualization, but also as desktop virtualization,
application virtualization, workspace virtualization, user virtualization,
client virtualization, and more - aimed at abstracting the end user experience
from the physical systems they rely on to provide that experience. 

There is a dearth of understanding of these technologies - what technologies
exist, how they differ from each other, their real use cases, outcomes, target
markets, difficulties, and cost benefits. Many commentaries have expounded on
their supposed benefits, some have warned of specific dangers, yet these have
been mostly been based only on anecdotal evidence, personal experience, and
academic investigation. Moreover, they have often been exceedingly biased, to
the point of being useless. 

In order to provide a useful understanding of the real world drivers, use cases,
and outcomes from desktop virtualization, application virtualization, and other
endpoint virtualization technologies, EMA conducted a detailed survey of current
endpoint virtualization deployments, collected multiple interviews with real
world users of desktop virtualization, application virtualization, and other
endpoint virtualization technologies, and provided case studies with deep
insight and qualitative analysis into various endpoint virtualization
technologies. 

All of these data and stories are collected in this research report, to provide
end user organizations and software vendors with a unique combination of
quantitative and qualitative research into real world experiences of endpoint
virtualization. 

Key Topics Covered:

Executive Summary 

Expectations of Endpoint Virtualization 

Actual Benefits of Endpoint virtualization
