Google & Citrix Team Up To Deliver Windows Apps to Chromebooks

As enterprises increasingly expand the list of their go-to devices, it is imperative these devices are equipped to provide users with anywhere, anytime access to business related apps. That’s where the fact that Google and Citrix have teamed up makes so much sense. Especially if that business has standardized on Google Chromebooks. Chromebooks for Business, combined with Citrix XenApp virtual app delivery solution and Citrix Receiver for HTML5, enable customers to securely deliver Windows apps with the high-definition user experience of Citrix HDX technology, and operational scalability for the largest organizations.

To introduce Chromebooks for business, Citrix is offering a promotional discount of 25 percent for XenApp Platinum edition – the flagship version that also includes Citrix AppDNA application management technology. To help customers understand the benefits of Chrome with XenApp, Citrix and Google are running a joint educational seminar series, the first of which is on April 22, 2014, with another on May 13, 2014. In addition, Citrix, Google and joint partner, MTM Technologies, are holding the first in a series of customer roadshows at Google’s New York Chelsea Market office on April 23, 2014.

Also, to help businesses with their Chromebook deployment, Citrix has built a Citrix Ready verified ecosystem of Chromebook OEMs so they know what they have to choose from.
