They are probably best known for their early development virtualization technologies to allow applications to be virtualized onto central servers for access by a large number of clients, as well as their desktop virtualiztion platform.
Today, they've expanded their focus from virtualization to include access-anywhere products, such as GoToMeeting, GoToAssist and GoToMyPC, though they still maintain a strong presence in virtualization with, in addition to their existing application and desktop virtualization products, their acquisition of XenSource, and resulting leadership role on the open source Xen hypervisor.
