Extracting SCCM Installation Media and Modernising at speed

Extracting SCCM Installation Media and Modernising at speed

Over the last 6 months, appCURE has been working hard to bring to the market some big updates to the appCURE product portfolio. One of our latest innovations is the newly added capability to extract all Installation media from SCCM ready to be processed and repackages with appCURE. This ground-breaking feature enables customers to quickly extract all the SCCM Installation media without impacting existing production systems and then process/repackage ready for ingestion to a new modern workspace like Microsoft Intune, and VMware WorkspaceOne / VMware App Volumes.

introduced in September 2022 appCURE released version 3.1 of appCURE studio including the new SCCM extraction feature.

 This feature also includes bandwidth throttling to prevent bandwidth saturation and noisy neighbour issues from occurring.

The following diagram depicts the solution in logical form: 

appCURE’s key focus is to help customers get to production quicker and we continue to keep adding value in spaces where customers can save time and reduce costs.

Calor Gas Case Study

Calor Gas Case Study

Here is another great example of how appCURE is helping customers. We are quite simply unsticking stalled projects and helping customers migrate quicker! This specific case study is on the challenges associated with migrating to Citrix cloud due to legacy app issues.

 “Utilising appCURE’s unique running capture capability, Calor was able to successfully move their applications to a new Citrix infrastructure supporting the latest versions and Citrix Cloud. By successfully moving to the new Citrix
platform, Calor were able to avoid redevelopment of some of the applications which would have been costly and time consuming. It also allowed the IT team to reduce the number of different operating systems that they maintained, which both reduces maintenance time but more importantly improves the security.”

appCURE allowed us to move to the modern desktop without costly and time-consuming redevelopment, they have been brilliant!”
