App-V has served you well. But support for its server components ended in April 2026, and your packages carry years of scripts, tweaks and connection groups.

The good news: your packages still work. So you can plan the move properly, not in a hurry.

Systech moves App-V estates to MSIX and MSI.

We start with what you really have: which packages are used, what each one does, and what's hidden inside.

Then each app gets the right route. Convert to MSIX. Rebuild as MSI where MSIX doesn't fit. Run it on Azure Virtual Desktop with app attach. Or retire it.

Connection groups become shared package containers, and every package is tested before it reaches users.

Not everything converts cleanly, and user settings don't move across on their own. We plan for that, so nobody loses a working app.

Packaging specialists since 2013.

Book a call, send us your App-V package list, and we'll show you the route for each one.
