#CITRIX XENAPP AND DESKTOP PC#

VMware now offers Blast and Blast Extreme Protocal so PCoIP is one (of several) options. In the end, I went Citrix, even though I was a VMware brand fan.ДЄs I mentioned the challenge here is anyone's knoledge in this field gets dated quickly. Citrix has been refining HDX for years with thin clients, so I feel like they do that part better.

I believe VMware got in bed with Teradici for Horizion View PC over IP. VMware worked, but slower and not as consistently with device redirection. Citrix had better support for redirecting hardware (USB, Scanning, Etc) over the HDX protocol. The HDX protocol was better, it performed better in general but especially over slower connections. I will say prior to this I had only used VMware, so I was hoping to keep it all VMware. I cant point you to an article, but I can say the following as someone who tested both with an open mind for a project : The reality is BOTH solutions will likely deliver what you want to acomplish.В Speeds and feeds comparisions are useless. Do you Need MDM with that VDI product? AirWatch is the best in the business. If you are allready using Go2Meeting and Netscaler and other things on Citrix's line card they will do bundling too. Throw in the bundled vSAN to cover storage, the SSO broker (Workspace one), and the hypervisor with the vSphere for Desktops option You can negotiate crazy discounts. If You are a VMware shop and have an ELA and working with VMware EUC sales dirrectly. Listening to me rant about how it's overly complicated compared to horizon would be pointless.Д¤. I've used XenDesktop but not touched it since 6.5. Even for people who have used both few have used both to an expert level. The analysts all accept money from vendors to 'Consult' for them.ДЈ. Both are multi-billion dollar companies with massive marketing budgets.Дў. To be blunt, you are going to get bias because:ДЎ. All the views I can see are very biased and are mainly from Citrix or VMware. VMware Horizon please? I need this info urgently. Can anyone point me in the direction of a unbiased view / comparison of Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop vs.
