Rimo3 Workspace360 Shows the Impact of Application Change Before Change Happens
Introducing the new Rimo3 Workspace 360 application lifecycle management platform, an essential enterprise solution that changes how enterprises execute application migrations and ongoing application management.
After speaking with enterprise customers and global channel reseller partners, plus researching market trends and technology directions, Rimo3 carefully redesigned our Rimo3 Cloud platform, now renamed Rimo3 Workspace360. The result is a modular approach to application discovery, packaging, patching, validation, and delivery.
As part of the redesign, Rimo3 is also extremely excited to introduce our new unequaled patch management solution, Patch360!
Both Workspace 360 and Patch360 are available now. Both can be purchased through Rimo3, our network of reseller partners, and the Microsoft Azure Marketplace.
Rimo3 Workspace360 – Where Your Agile Application Lifecycle Management Begins
Rimo3 Workspace360 is an agile platform that enables you to manage your Microsoft Windows applications in today’s modern world.
Enterprises are ready to replace outdated and manual application management processes. Even with offshoring manual testing and attempting to use older packaging tools for multiple modern formats, enterprises are drowning in application preparation. You just can’t keep up!
Workspace360 is designed to automate manual work, address today’s threats, simplify how you work.
See how Workspace360 provides automated and contextually aware application lifecycle management in this short demo.
Rimo3 Discover360: Understand Where to Start the Journey
Let’s start at the beginning of the application migration process. What applications do you have within your Windows application estate? By using Rimo3 Discover360 module, you’ll find out!
When you’re starting a journey, you use a map to understand the starting point - “You are here.” It is just like that when you’re updating and migrating applications. You need to know where you are starting, then you can plan on how to get where you want to go. .
Discover 360 imports enterprise application metadata from application storage repositories, such as Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) or from a third-party catalog, then takes it one step further by “looking” into each application and identifying more critical information such as installation logic, application metadata and dependencies for the application to install and run properly.
For example, you may find one of your applications requires a specific DLL version that is only available from another application’s installation. Now you know what you need to make sure of before the update goes live.
Discover360 also supports adding new applications as your Windows estate grows.
See the Discover360 demo to see comprehensive application discovery.
Use Rimo3 Package360 to Automate and Modernize Packages
Next, see if the applications Discover360 reported are packaged the way you need them. In today’s world, part of your application and ongoing application management is dictated by end-of-life programs or the need to migrate to a more up-to-date endpoint management platform for features or compliance reasons. This means you may need to update your applications to a modern package format.
Rimo3 Package360 recognizes various formats including MSI, EXE, MSIX, or App-V, AppVols, FlexApp One, and several scripted package formats and can automatically modernize those to updated package formats for Microsoft Intune or MSIX, Omnissa App Volumes, Liquidware FlexApp One, or Microsoft App Attach. This will save you time and resources and put you on the fast track to your destination of a low-maintenance application infrastructure.
Watch the Package360 demo to see packaging in modern formats.
Contextually Relevant Application Validation with Rimo3 Validate360 Make Sure Applications Will Work When You Need Them To
Understand the Impact before the Change
Once the applications you want to modernize and migrate are discovered, and in the correct package format, the next step is to ensure that the application is ready to be deployed in your customized production environment or environments.
Rimo3 Validate360 helps you understand how the modernized application will perform in your enterprise environment, because no one has a standard out-of-the-box environment. The Rimo3 patented intelligent smoke test analyzes and generates detailed reports on your application's functionality. It identifies and documents its callback functions to automatically create a smoke test script. This script is essential for conducting initial computing system assessments in future testing.
This helps enterprises take full advantage of infrastructure investments while improving end-user productivity and decreasing security vulnerabilities. With Validate360, enterprise administrators save weeks and months of manual effort in delivering operating systems and application updates.
Validate360 also includes automated user acceptance testing (UAT), which is commonly performed before the tested software is released to users. The goal of the Validate360 UAT is to make sure that the application can handle real-world tasks and perform up to your users’ expectations. Validate360 output will give you specific information on how the application performed, whether it was successful or if it fails. If the application has failed, Validate360 gives you information on what needs to be remediated.
See the Validate360 demo to understand contextual analysis of applications in modern formats.
Improving Application Patch Management with Relevant Customized Details
For years enterprises have applied application patches with no testing, manual testing, or only testing against vanilla OS builds. As the world learned in July, failing to test isn’t an option. Most organizations readily agree manual testing takes a lot of time and effort. Rmio3 is changing the landscape for application patch management with Rimo3 Patch360, a new product available today.
Rimo3 has rethought and simplified the way enterprises patch applications. With Patch360, it’s no longer a challenge to find the most up-to-date patches for Windows desktop environment. Patch360 is the only product on the market that validates application patch and updates against your specific workspace to work in your specific environment, using contextual relevance to determine if this patch or update impacts your physical, virtual, or cloud environments. With Patch360, enterprise can deliver patched and updated applications with confidence.
The brand new Patch360 module has three distinct differentiators from legacy competitors”
- With a simple searchable and browsable interface, Patch360 incorporates comprehensive third-party application catalogs to manage patches and updates for common Windows applications. Patch360 has the largest catalog of common applications and installers, with over 25,000 applications and installers.
- Patch360 can be combined with Rimo3 Package360 to update application packages for modern formats like Microsoft MSIX, Omnissa App Volumes, or Liquidware FlexApp One and handoff the package to delivery platforms like Microsoft Intune, Omnissa WorkspaceONE, or Nerdio Manager for Enterprise.
- Rimo3 is the only company that validates and tests application packages against your specific environment. The contextually aware validation recognizes enterprises aren’t using vanilla builds of anything. When the patched or updated application is validated against your specific environment, you reduce the risk of application failure and critical business issues.
Several Rimo3 enterprise customers are testing Patch360, and the feedback so far is overly positive!
