Remote Application Delivery: What It Is and Why Your Business Needs It

Remote Application Delivery: Many businesses rely on applications that staff must access daily — accounting tools, ERP systems, CRM software, medical apps, and more. But installing and maintaining these programs on every user’s device is costly, slow, and difficult to manage.

That’s where Remote Application Delivery steps in.


What Is Remote Application Delivery?

Remote App Delivery allows applications to run on a centralized server, while users access them remotely as if they were installed locally.

Instead of installing software on each device, the app runs in the data center.
Users simply click and use it — even from a web browser.

“Your app runs on the server, but feels like it’s installed on your computer.”


How Does It Work?

It’s simpler than most people imagine:

  1. The application is installed on a central server
  2. The delivery software (e.g., Parallels RAS, TSplus, Citrix, RDS) publishes the app
  3. Users connect and launch the application remotely
  4. Only screen updates, keyboard, and mouse signals travel between the user and the server

This makes the experience extremely fast and responsive.


Key Benefits for Businesses

● Massive Savings on IT Costs

One installation serves all users. No more repetitive updates.

● Works on Any Device

Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebooks — even tablets.

● Secure by Design

Data stays on the server, not on employee devices.

● Perfect for Remote or Hybrid Teams

Employees access their core applications from anywhere.

● Great Performance with Low Bandwidth

Even slow connections can run remote apps smoothly.


Use Cases

Remote application delivery is ideal for:

  • Accounting and financial applications
  • ERP and warehouse systems
  • Medical or educational software
  • Call centers
  • Companies with many remote staff
  • Organizations with many branches
  • Software vendors who want to offer cloud access

Why Your Business Might Need It

If you are tired of inconsistent software versions, slow updates, device compatibility issues, or want to simplify remote access for your team, remote application delivery may be exactly what you need.

It keeps your apps centralized, secure, and accessible — without complicating your IT workflow.
