Pros
  • + Highest rate of app compatibility of all virtualization products. The simplest packaging of all products, very little skill required. Native support for drivers. Ability to control isolation or integration of individual files and reg keys. Citrix Ready and SCCM Integrated. Has powershell cmdlets for automation.
  • + In box in Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10 Enterprise. PowerShell driven so lends itself very well to automation. The pros of App-V 4.6 also applies here.
  • + Integration with App Volumes and Horizon. Next to App-V, it's the most widely used product.
Cons
  • - Doesn\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t have a very large online community outside of Software2\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s recipe library which is not free.
  • - There's a learning curve even for those with experience in App-V 4.6 due to many changes to the underlying technology. Isolation options are rigid which makes application compatibility an issue when compared to other products.
  • - Though packaging is pretty streamlined and relatively simple with a series of text files, making updates to large applications requires recompiling the .exe which can take a long time. Development was pretty slow and this was the last product to support 64-bit applications. Newer versions of Office or new Windows Operating System have limited functionality.
