InstallFree, a company whose virtualization products allow users to access their Windows applications remotely, has raised $8.5 million in a second round of funding. The round was led by Ignition Partners and Trilogy Equity Partners.
The Bellevue, Wash,-based startup raised $1.7 million last November, and launched its first product in April. That product gives comapnies a cost-efficient way to give their employees access to applications whether they’re in the office, at home or on the road.
