Preparing a Windows 2008 R2 Server for the 2X Web Access Portal

In this blog article, the 2X Support staff describes how to set up your Windows 2008 R2 server to use the 2X Web Access Portal, complete with step-by-step instructions and screenshots.


Virtualization: The Right Way Forward is the Hypervisor Agnostic Approach

In this article, author Brien Posey discusses the hypervisor-agnostic approach delivered by 2X solutions, and the general feasibility of VDI infrastructures. This capability allows 2X solutions to fully integrate with virtually any hypervisor in popular use today, including Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware ESX, and more.


Managed Insurance Services Builds Business Model Around 2X Application Delivery

Managed Insurance Services, Inc. (MIS) operates as an insurance IT provider, guaranteeing that affiliated insurance companies have valid quotes sent to their agents in the field consistently and efficiently. To reduce product overhead while efficiently providing necessary application delivery functionality, the company chose the 2X ApplicationServer to replace their existing Citrix solution, due to the solution’s highly affordable pricepoints.
