The downside is that there are simply applications that Thinapp cannot virtualize – examples include Antivirus software, firewalls and device drivers. Need to run multiple applications with different versions of Java Runtime Environment? Not a problem!
Probably the greatest benefit of application virtualization is conflict free application delivery. The fact that applications can be configured before deployment is another great benefit from a standard installation. Obviously isolating applications from the OS has security benefits, especially when something like a virus or malware is confined to a sandbox. This independence from the host OS has many benefits and a few drawbacks (depending on how you look at things). In basic terms Thinapp abstracts the file system and registry of a given application into a single executable file – decoupling it from the host Operating System (OS). VMware Thinapp is a suite of components that work together to virtualize applications.
