Remoteapp is a virtual application solution that allows users to run windows-based applications regardless of what operating system they are using. It allows users to launch virtual applications from a server that appear on their computer as if it is installed locally, but in reality are running on a remote server. The user is able to open and save files locally, or open or save to their network drives, which are accessible from the remoteapps. Another way to think about RemoteApps would be it is the same as using gotowork (or any terminal server), except instead of interacting with an entire desktop on a server, you only interact with the application you are using.
