CITRIX XenApp and XenDesktop

The Hassle Free Citrix XenApp / XenDesktop Client

Whether you are planning on using XenApp or Xen Desktop or you are currently connected and want to scale up your VDI –either way you are going to need an endpoint OS and management solution capable of unlocking the full benefit of your VDI.

Challenges facing Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop customers include

High Security Expenses

Without a standardized endpoint architecture in place, you will spend vasts amounts of cash on security updates and Windows fixes. Not to mention the countless IT staff hours you will have to deploy in order to keep your VDI up-to-date and running flawlessly.

Massive Hardware Investment

In order to connect to your XenDesktop and XenApp, you may be thinking of investing in a complete new set of endpoint devices or Thin Clients. Thin Clients are pricey and replacing all of your devices with them will cost a fortune.

Management Nightmare

Even after purchasing your new Thin Clients you will still need to install Windows onto all of your endpoint devices. This means more machines that need to be managed, updated, and have malware and antivirus provided for.

You know all the advantages of a VDI already. Which is why you are considering XenApp and XenDesktop. However, in order to get the full benefit of your VDI you will need to look outside the windows lock-down approach.
