Together with Microsoft, ChangeBASE has recently developed and released reporting rules / plugins for RDS 2008 R2 to help you automatically test applications for issues. These RDS plugins will enable you to find out which applications will work out of the box on RDS 2008 R2 and which ones may experience issues and what those exact issues are.

ChangeBase AOK for RDS 2008 R2 performs the following tests:

• Elevated Privileges Detection
• Global User Data Settings Detection
• Host Detection
• Per User Install Detection
• Printer Driver Detection
