Latest updates extend compatibility to Windows ARM devices while simplifying access for students and faculty across higher education
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AppsAnywhere, a student-first platform for higher education that centralizes software access, today announced major enhancements to its Cloud Delivery and virtualization capabilities. The latest features address long-standing compatibility issues across Windows, Mac, and student-owned devices by introducing application streaming and expanded support for Windows ARM laptops and tablets, reducing barriers to learning and ensuring students can access the right apps on any device.
From AutoCAD and MATLAB to Adobe® Creative Cloud and SPSS, even the most resource-intensive programs are now instantly available through a browser—no matter the device with AppsAnywhere's latest Cloud Delivery solution. Students no longer need access to high-powered lab computers or costly VDI setups. By combining broad device compatibility with smarter app delivery, AppsAnywhere helps colleges and universities support today's hybrid and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) learning models.
"This expansion of Cloud Delivery is about one thing: giving students access without limits," said Nick Johnson, CEO and Co-Founder, AppsAnywhere. "By adding support for more devices and building smarter controls into the platform, institutions can offer software to every learner, regardless of what device they bring to class or where they're studying from."
With enhanced Cloud Delivery along with extending support to Windows ARM devices, AppsAnywhere is addressing this challenge by enabling students to access complex software while helping IT stay ahead of rapidly evolving hardware and operating systems.
The platform also streamlines access so students can launch or resume sessions anytime, anywhere, without relying on specialized labs. Smart Prioritization technology automatically selects the best method for each user and device, ensuring a smooth, responsive experience while reducing overhead. At the same time, IT teams benefit from new session management and reporting features, which provide greater visibility into usage and resource needs while ensuring a seamless student experience.
"Cloud Delivery removes barriers for students—they can instantly launch what they need, on any device, supporting their academic success," said Spencer Vale, Director of Product and Change Management, AppsAnywhere. "For students, it's simple and it works, and our customers' support teams are pleasantly surprised there's essentially nothing for them to manage."
