Challenges That Come With Local Installation

Attachmate EXTRA! utilizes local installation for desktop emulation, which creates several challenges for legacy system access. This includes risks associated with manual updates, device compatibility, security management, optimization, and version control.

Implementation and servicing problems

Using a desktop emulator requires manual installation and updates, as well as regular maintenance for all devices using the platform. This leads to version inconsistency, overworked support teams, and slow onboarding.

User access and flexibility issues

Users are required to use specific devices, configurations, and, in some cases, tools such as VPNs to access legacy systems. This makes it challenging to support remote teams when compared to browser-based alternatives.

Concerns around security and control

Security issues are a concern with local installations, as configurations stem from endpoints. Old versions, alongside decentralized control, reduce visibility and increase risk.
