RAS Enables Teaching Staff

The Challenge


A School had a requirement to provide its staff with access to applications and storage and a virtual application publishing solution was found to be the way forward. The school wanted a solution for virtual learning spaces on any device, including BYOD, and benefit from a flexible solution that could be scaled to demand, and within budget.


The Solution


Parallels Remote Application Server (RAS) was selected by The School, as it met all the requirements and also delivered a secure workspace, together with a cost effective implementation. Parallels RAS enabled the school to provide a secure, easy-to-use application publishing to any staff device, including BYOD and School issued devices. The School's IT department were supported throughout the implementation and spent less time than expected on the overall deployment.


The Outcome


Thanks to Parallels RAS, The School's IT spend much less time supporting teachers with accessing The School's resources, due to the intuitive nature of the Secure Remote Desktop Solution. The BYOD policy was also simple to manage because of the security and accessibility provided by RAS. Staff could now prepare teaching resources more readily away from the School, and further strengthen learning outcomes for their students.


  • Teaching staff can access The School's resources and build upon existing content to improve learning outcomes in the classroom.
  • RAS has a simple concurrent use licensing model that helped The School manage its expenditure.
  • RAS is intuitive and easy to use, with few support requests raised to The School's IT, allowing staff to remain productive and focus on teaching and learning.
