Parallels RAS is a robust solution and extremely customizable. We enjoyed our experience with the solution, our administrators found it easy to use but ran into limitations due to our infrastructure.

I really enjoyed that Parallels RAS is an extremely customizable, all-in-one platform with quick access to the health of the infrastructure. The Parallels Client was user-friendly and the drag and drop function really helped our users. The VDI & Remote App support was a huge win for us.

Unfortunately, the Parallels RAS became slow after configuring over 100 applications. Although it's customizable, the learning curve is a little high when trying to familiarize yourself with all the options. I would have appreciated the engineering and sales team spending more time showing us the benefits of cloud hosted resources.

    Parallels: A Game-Changer in Customizing and Deploying Applications

    4.0
    Apr 23, 2025
    The product has been working well for us for years and we have not had any major issues with the application during that time. When we first implemented Parallels, it was a game-changer in how we customized and deployed applications across our departments. This became even more apparent during the onset of COVID, when employees were forced to work from home. By coupling Parallels technology with a VPN, we were able to remain largely unaffected, as the infrastructure was already in place to support remote work. Having the ability to publish, load balance, and apply access control to services made maintenance, monitoring and application rollouts a simple task for our IT team.
