Thinapp's appeal is twofold for me. Firstly the apps themselves are fully self-contained. There is no need to have a Thinapp client in place beforehand for them to run. This makes deploying them a snap. Either have them copied to your endpoint or run them from a network share. Simple.<br><br>Secondly, the package creation process is very quick and simple. Use the capture tool to create a snapshot or before picture of a machine, install the software, configure it and take the after snapshot. You are left with a ready-to-run package that somebody can deploy infinitely!<br><br>Lastly (did I say two). User config that would normally be stored in appdata and hkcu is saved to a store on disk so you can run Thinapps of the same package but of different versions on the same machine. <br>You can use a Profile management tool such as Ivanti UWM to allow profile settings to migrate to App-V or natively installed software on other devices.

Not much, really. Just that the options to change the package after saving are limited. I may have missed it, but it would be nice to be able to control what stays in the sandbox and what 'falls through' to the real file system and registry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
