Create Portable Apps with Cameyo Application Virtualisation

Described as a software teleporter, Cameyo lets you use software without installing it by running virtualised applications through your web browser. This makes lets you discover and try new software by creating portable applications. You can also use software from one operating system on another, like running Windows software on your Mac. Along with a free version for personal use, there are paid commercial versions of the application.

Using Cameyo

Cameyo is virtualised into a single EXE file, allowing you copy and execute it on your computer without installing the application. You are also able to publish your own software to a dedicate cloud server and run it from any device with a HTML5 browser without any plugins. This function lets you demo your software to other users through your website. It works by first taking a snapshot of your system before installing an application and then another afterwards. The programme then compares the changes to understand what modifications are needed to your system.

Features that set Cameyo apart

Similar products on the market do not have a lot of the same features as this product, including data encryption, cloud packaging, and virtualisation modes for both RAM and Disk. The application lets you apply user restrictions, such as scripting and passwords. You can also save data and settings on a USB or Dropbox. At the same, it is an affordable alternative to VMware ThinApp and similar programmes.

  • Pros

    • Simple interface and easy to use
    • Allows you to install virtually any app including add-ons to other programs
  • Cons

    • Unable to use your device as snapshots are taken
    • Lacks stability with crashes and errors with some software

Pretty cool. I like how you can package apps for USB or browser. Sometimes virtualized programs won't work, but you need to try with different apps.

Great app!. Using this tool, you can make almost any application portable. This allowed me to put it on my USB drive, and even on my Dropbox.Now I surf the Internet with a portable Firefox I made with Cameyo and placed on my Dropbox. Everywhere I go, I can use my browser with my bookmarks, preferences, saved forms etc.Very nice! Pros: Make your apps portable rather than tying them to one specific computer Cons: Updating a portable app isn't simple enough

I Like it. This program scripts installing and running many windows applications. You simply start the capture before you install the application, and wait until it gives you the go ahead. It then creates an archive that will expand and run the application in your profile instead of the location the installer picked. Settings and saved files are then updated in this copy in your profile, so If you want to find files you save you may have to look in C:Documents and SettingsyouApplication DataVOSAppName. There are a few things I've tried that haven't quite worked -- for example if you package the Google Chrome browser, it won't let you install additional packages from the chrome web store after the Cameyo packaging. I believe this is because of the changed location of files, and is actually good for you, but it means that you have to plan ahead and install all of your application's plugins before you tell it that the install is done. Pros: Doesn't run the installer on every computer, so after it's packaged you don't have to be an admin to run it. Cons: Leaves a big footprint in your profile for the runtime application.
