Case Study: Old Dominion Truck Leasing achieves seamless user profile portability and rapid VDI deployment with AppSense

Old Dominion chooses AppSense to support physical desktops and VDI initiative

Old Dominion Truck Leasing, a nationwide full‑service leasing and logistics provider founded in 1963, faced an aging Windows XP desktop estate, time‑consuming reimaging and manual user configuration, and the need to roll out VDI while preserving personalized user profiles and mobile access. Director of IT Rob Taggart set out to modernize the environment, simplify migrations between machines, and give mobile staff reliable, secure access to corporate files.

Old Dominion deployed AppSense DesktopNow (Environment Manager) and DataNow to virtualize profiles, centrally manage desktop policies, and provide synchronized offline and mobile file access. The result: consistent, personalized desktops across physical and non‑persistent VDI sessions, profile portability for faster reimaging (from hours to minutes), improved productivity for sales and service teams, and centralized control and security of user data.
