Use Cases
Cloudpaging for Education
Ensure all Windows applications can run across any student device without being repackaged.
Numecent and AppsAnywhere Join Forces for Higher Education
Cloudpaging enables educational institutions to deliver their entire Windows application estate to their students and staff members anywhere, anytime. With Cloudpaging, even the most complex software applications can run across physical and virtual desktops without being repackaged. Our education partner AppsAnywhere leverages Cloudpaging to provide a customizable application store that can deploy all your applications to any student device with a single click.
How Cloudpaging is Being Used Today
University IT teams are delivering hundreds of applications to tens of thousands of students everyday, without the need to repackage for different devices or operating systems.
| 200+ | Higher education institutions delivering applications via Cloudpaging |
| 1.5M+ | Students accessing applications in a self-service manner |
| 75% | Reduction in the number and 75% size of system images |
| 50% | Less application-related help desk tickets to-date |
Run Applications at Native Speeds
Unlike traditional virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), Cloudpaging leverages local workstation resources to run applications as if natively installed. This empowers IT to deliver graphics-intensive software without expensive back-end infrastructure to support it.
Increase License Visibility and Control
Meter and report on all application usage, while implementing fine-grained software license controls to ensure ISV compliance. Ultimately, this maximizes application availability, reduces IT overhead, and optimizes license usage.
Provide Self-Service Application Access
All Cloudpaged applications can be made available from a centralized application store, enabling students to securely access the resources they need in a self-service fashion from their unmanaged devices.
