visionapp, the server-based solutions specialists, today announced the launch of its enhanced European Channel Partner Programme. Split into three levels to provide opportunities for success at varying levels of participation Advanced Partner, Certified Partner and Reseller Partner the programme will be rolled out across the UK and Europe, will extend the reach of visionapps existing channel partner programme in Germany. Through the Partner Programme, visionapp will extend the reach of its two key products that enable enterprises to efficiently centralise their applications and provide secure, simplified access for their distributed workforce: visionapp Platform Management Suite and visionapp Access Portal.
visionapp Platform Management Suite provides fully automated installation and administration processes for large terminal server environments, including Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server.

Applications are delivered through one central location, as opposed to every desktop, thus dramatically reducing IT support costs. Furthermore, visionapps partner relationships for encryption and authentication functionality ensure simplified, yet secure, access using a standard web browser.
