Get started with AppsAnywhere

Let's talk about getting started with AppsAnywhere...



Building a business case for virtualization or software delivery?

Are you currently looking for a better way of delivering your academic software to students and staff across campus on any device, and off campus too?

We've put together some resources to help Higher Ed institutions who are either:

  • building a business case, internally, for a new virtualization or app delivery solution/platform
  • creating a request for proposals (RFP) or request for information (RFI) from app delivery vendors

Our resources will help you consider everything you need to know when it comes to deploying software apps to students and staff on any device, anywhere and at any time, including to managed campus labs and BYOD.

This sample document outlines how you can build real business value for a new app delivery solution, such as a reduction in IT time spend packaging, ROI from reduced hardware investment cycles, and cost-savings over expensive VDI solutions.

RFP template for virtualization or software delivery solutions >

For those who've already proved an internal business need for a new software virtualization or delivery platform, our RFP template will help you include everything you'll want to know when vendors reply to your tender or request for proposals. That includes hardware specs, user experience info, related customers, industry experience, and the vendor's support and onboarding processes.

Not ready for a demo? Try a few apps on our online trial

Head over to our online trial to test a few apps and get a feel for how AppsAnywhere looks and feels. There, you can demo your students' and staff's experience on any device, including Windows, macOS and Chromebooks. We've put some commonly-used Higher Ed apps in the trial site, too.

If you'd like to see specific apps running, or for more information about what the backend and admin platform looks like or how it works, arrange a demo with our product team.

Please bear in mind that the online trial site is a cloud-hosted instance of AppsAnywhere designed for showcasing our frontend app store-like platform. Performance and speed of individual apps may vary depending on your location when accessing the trial.
