If you were at VMWorld 2008, the industry’s largest virtualization conference, last week and are wondering what presence Israeli companies had at it, you need look no farther than the winner of “The Desktop Virtualization Best of VMWorld 2008 Award,” InstallFree.

InstallFree, a provider of Dynamic Desktop Computing,

“enables organizations to centrally deploy and manage software applications to end-users in a stateless, flexible and cost-efficient manner across a variety of usage scenarios.”

InstallFree Bridge, the product that won, allows the lock down of a corporate PC without diminishing the end users’ experience. InstallFree Bridge end-users can access their desktop applications virtually from any computer anywhere and have local application processing and offline availability, all while still under the IT department’s control.

According to the website, additional InstallFree benefits include: single package for all platforms, separately package desktop elements, click and deploy, simplify application lifecycle tasks, business continuity on-click and foster end-user mobility.

Here is a demo video of InstallFree that Virtual Strategy Magazine posted on YouTube.
