Ruben Spruijt (PQR) has provided an excellent document to help you compare your requirements to the prominent vendor solutions. Note that Altiris SVS is not supported on Terminal Server...
We use App-V 4.1 currently, but there is a learning curve. Not 64-bit capable yet, and our core apps are installed locally.

I heard the OLE thing mostly was addressed in v4.5. I will definitely
be testing those kinds of apps though.

It is useful for some minor/weird apps, but as soon as you use an app with OLE-type integration, it falls apart - and that wipes out Office, Accounts packages, CRM, most databases...sequencing most apps sounds lovely (And got me very excited as a possibility) but definitely is not feasible - though, again, I've just stayed at 4.0. I'm sure others will chip in with more recent experience...

Hi, I'm the SVS product manager at Symantec. We're readying a release of SVS that supports Citrix & Terminal Server environments. Many customers have asked for this capability. Symantec is looking to release in just a few weeks!
