What is Symantec Endpoint Virtualization Suite?

Symantec's Endpoint Virtualization Suite (formerly SVS "Software Virtualization Solution" from Altiris) addresses the growing need to contain the high cost and complexity associated with managing endpoints today, while simultaneously insuring maximum end user productivity. Greater user mobility, adoption of multiple compute models, and proliferation of various virtualization technologies all contribute to the growing conflict between IT costs and end user flexibility. Symantec Endpoint Virtualization Suite offers products to improve both sides of that equation for all users, regardless of device, location or connectivity.

The individual Layer is totally enclosed and can use so e.g. different versions the same file in the Windows-System32-directory parallel.
