You are not required to use the Host Access perspective, although it provides your end users with easy access to the ZIETrans applications you have provided them. You can use the Host Access perspective as a starting point, or start from scratch and develop a perspective that better fits the needs of your users.
By default, the Host Access perspective includes the Applications view. See Applications view for more information on this view.
