No desktop client on every endpoint
Users reach host applications through the browser—without packaging, pushing, and maintaining a fat client on each workstation.
Significantly lower deployment complexity for host access
Browser access to host applications—without the endpoint burden.
Portal delivers centralized browser-based access to mainframe, IBM i, UNIX, and related host workflows. It cuts deployment complexity in a meaningful way: no client install on every endpoint, less dependence on VPN solutions, and an easier fit with existing enterprise browser environments. Paired with Director, Portal forms a Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) package for legacy applications.
Deployment complexity drops—on purpose
Portal is built so IT teams can expand host access without repeating classic endpoint and remote-access overhead.
Lower VPN dependency
Reduce broad VPN exposure for many host-access scenarios by delivering governed browser access instead of opening wide remote tunnels.
Easier fit with enterprise browser solutions
Integrate more cleanly with existing enterprise browser stacks and browser-centric access programs already in place across the organization.
Modern access with centralized control
Browser access
Give distributed users access to host workflows through standard browsers.
Centralized deployment
Simplify rollout, updates, configuration, and version consistency from the center—not from every desktop.
With Director
Combine Portal and Director for governed ZTNA to legacy applications—then complement with Sentinel for in-session security.
Supported terminal types
Portal supports the full TermGardium terminal emulation catalog—the same set of terminal types as Station—so browser users can reach the same host environments without a desktop client on every endpoint.

Where Portal fits
Use Portal when IT teams want browser-based delivery, much lower deployment complexity, and preserved host application behavior. Add Director for the ZTNA package. Add Sentinel to complement with modern in-session security after users connect.
