Citrix was this week named a leader in Virtal Desktops (VDI) by Forrester Research. Forrester noted that Citrix set itself apart from the seven other companies surveyed because of its ability to provide a superior user experience, the completeness of its offerings, and the research group’s confidence in Citrix’s solutions:
According to the report, the “XenDesktop VDI offering is distinctive at several levels, from the user experience with Citrix Receiver endpoint clients that offer native HDX protocol support on all device and OS platforms to rich 3D graphics and multiple 4K monitor support and sophisticated features for multimedia and videoconferencing performance.” The report also noted that Citrix offers a “clever Wi-Fi-based mouse that works with the Citrix Receiver on the iOS platform.”
Citrix also received the highest scores for strategy and current offering, and is the only solution in the evaluation to offer FIPS 140-2 compliance, key encryption standard required by Federal government agencies. The report states that “on the back end, application layering and personal vDisks help customers make better use of storage resources with pooled desktop instances, and customers can deploy them on Citrix, VMware or Microsoft hypervisors – a significant advantage.”
The report notes that “Citrix consolidated its platforms in 2014, and finally has a single management console for the whole VDI stack” and that “XenDesktop is also part of the most complete suite of digital workspace delivery systems technologies in the industry, which includes XenApp for proven session-hosted desktop capabilities if desired.”
Applauding XenDesktop’s capabilities, they also noted the Citrix X1 Mouse and XenApp as aiding in providing the most complete suite of digital workspace delivery systems technologies in the industry.
