Overview of CloudShare
The CloudShare SaaS platform is a quick and easy way to share copies of your complex IT environments, online. So you can collaborate with customers, partners, and colleagues – for Demos, Proofs-of-Concept, Training, or other enterprise applications – without wasting time copying gigabytes of software or shipping machines and people. Going beyond basic webinar or “virtual lab” offerings, CloudShare solutions enable users’ extended interaction in dedicated “hands on” production-grade replicas of their existing IT, delivered as cloud-based SaaS. VMware, Cisco, SAP and others have chosen CloudShare to extend access to their virtual infrastructure from the Enterprise to the Cloud
