Find out what your peers are saying about Citrix, Microsoft, VMware and others in Application Virtualization."It provides the flexibility of being used on any device which makes the employee experience better, in terms of ease of use."
"The most valuable feature is the desktop experience so that users don't see much difference between the remote desktop and the local desktop... It also provides virtualization for high-end graphics so that they can be displayed. AutoCAD can be done on Citrix. The graphics are very good."
"It has very good performance in delivering 3D applications over WAN."
"The App is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The tool helps me to connect with some apps of our company and resolve the tickets."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the desktop virtualization, which allows me to connect from anywhere."
"It provides all of the features required for the protection of data. For example, we don't want to allow any copy/paste of data to an outside environment, and we are able to restrict the VDI to not allow any data transfer from the VDI to the local laptop's hard drives. That is one of the greatest advantages the solution provides."

"The contained browser is a good feature."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it enables us to remotely manage the devices, which is its purpose, and to push applications to the mobile devices from the portal."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I would rate the stability as eight out of ten."
"We can do single sign-on and make use of the same user account to log into multiple applications."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"If an end-user has an issue with a device, the administration has the ability to remote access the device after approval from the end-user."
"Good device management and good integration with third parties."
"Tech support can be slow if you do not receive help from the US representatives."
"There is room for improvement because it has a lot of dependency on Active Directory and other things. If they could come up with something similar and native, a complete solution portfolio would help."
"It would help if it were a little simpler. It's a bit complicated and we have hired Citrix administrators. But it's a good solution."
"I have to re-enter my user password when I am not using the tool for some time around ten minutes. I want to also improve the need to download other Citrix apps."
"Templating the deployment process could use improvement. When you start, there are a large number of details that are quite client-specific, although they do share common themes. To get somebody up and running in a day is very difficult to do. They should streamline by use case."
"I think Citrix's support is good, but sometimes it is a little slow."
"Licensing service installation and configuration was the biggest challenge for all Citrix solutions, but now they have fixed a lot of issues."
"The video conferencing feature needs to be improved."

"The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing."
"This product makes use of SAML across the board, which has seven known security flaws. It would be good if the company created a way to protect against SAML flaws. One way would be to integrate a firewall server or an endpoint out in the cloud with which you could establish trust. If you knew nothing about SAML and you did some Google searches about what SAML is, what are the flaws, and what are the known vulnerabilities, eventually, you'll find that there are seven flaws. There are two methods that you can use to solve those seven problems. They essentially involve putting a firewall or putting rules, such as access controls, so that anybody in the world can't just come in, authenticate, and either be a good guy or be someone trying to knock on my door and get into my house. If I could eliminate that, it would be awesome."
"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved."
"Feature-wise, it is fine, but its pricing could be better, given that Microsoft is on a bundling spree. AirWatch would benefit from reducing the license pricing per user per month."
"I tried to use the tool on an encrypted disk, but it was inconvenient."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"AirWatch doesn't seem to empower IT admins to try new things or get creative with implementations."
"VMware Workspace ONE can improve in virtual reality. Customers are now looking toward virtual reality devices. Though it supports virtual reality, it's treated as an Android device. Customers want to deal with VR devices, they want a specific VR tool. Not an Android device VR tool."
