Will You Dance to Endeavors’ Application Jukebox?

Endeavors recently launched its Application Jukebox, an application virtualization and delivery product, taking the concepts of application encapsulation and application streaming to a new level.

The two versions of Application Jukebox available today include Endeavors’ unique, fully-configurable virtualization that provides administrators with the flexibility to publish applications in fully isolated (sandboxed) mode, fully integrated mode, or any combination between the two options. Application Jukebox SaaS Edition features usage metering and a kiosk mode to support a pay-as-you-go model for application rental, plus portals that provide an easy-to-use environment for service providers and ISVs to create a custom application landing site. Application Jukebox Enterprise Edition supports Active Directory and offers user and group monitoring, as well as extensive tracking and support for cost-effective license management.

“We have seen a great deal of interest in Application Jukebox from current and prospective customers,” said Peter Bondar, CEO at Endeavors Technologies. “We are excited by the positive feedback from participants in our beta program and believe this will continue to grow as customers now begin deploying Application Jukebox.”

Dan Kusnetzky over at ZDNet Blogs seems to be impressed:

“Endeavors appears to have thought about the concepts of application virtualization and applicaiton delivery/streaming pretty deeply while architecting this product family. The company has recognized both the strengths and the limitations of previous approaches to each of these concepts and tried offer products that offered strengths equal to the approaches offered by rivals while minimizing the limitations those rivals faced.”
