We performed a comparison between Citrix Workspace and VMware Workspace ONE based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, Citrix and others in Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)."The most valuable feature is connectivity. The remote connection is the reason we are using this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless application edition with the low-level network bandwidth because we have between 10 and 15 sites in France with a low level of communication needs. We need to deploy our main application, the ERP system, and we needed an efficient solution to provide a solution to the remote sites, with very small links between the data center and the remote site."
"Getting access to the applications for which we otherwise have to be on-site is probably the biggest advantage"
"Ability to connect remotely."
"The basic virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) feature is most valuable. We were lucky to have it in place when the pandemic hit. It is used very heavily now."
"The service dash and Workspace Environment Manager service are good features."
"It allows us to mute users who adhere to a policy of not allowing direct VPN access for security reasons. It is easy to use."
"Citrix Workspace can present desktop applications with ease, in an efficient and secure manner. The performance is good, it is a great piece of software."
"The initial setup is easy and the deployment doesn't take too long."
"The feature with the highest rating for me is its employee management. I can also praise how versatile it is in terms of operating systems. It has good support for multiple operating systems and can easily manage them all. Not just that, but it can also support any kind of tool that can be run on all these operating systems."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is the support for multiple devices. Not only iOS, and Android, but all kinds of platforms, including VR device management. Additionally, it has a tunneling feature, which no other solution provides. Other solutions have to integrate with other tools to have this functionality, whereas VMware Workspace ONE has its own application gateway tunnel."
"Among the most important improvements is the ability to set up different groups with different deployment policies."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"We find it to be reliable."
"People who want to adopt this solution may be thinking about it from the end-user's perspective, but this solution is also very friendly for the people who manage it. It's administration-friendly."
"The Identity component of this solution is its most valuable feature."
"The lag when using Skype or Screen Sharing with multiple users needs to improve, as it makes it difficult for us to continue when we have to restart the system."
"Performance could be better if there was a low latency improvement."
"The application is now very complex. We started with Citrix on PCs. Now, to access the same application, we need to have a StoreFront Server, the Delivery Controller, and Citrix License Server. It's now very complex."
"Some customers find the price to be a significant factor. They have a hard time understanding the extra cost of the services"
"The product is currently not working well in hosting conferencing software like Zoom, Team, and Salon."
"The ITSM adapters need to be enhanced."
"The product's technical support services need improvement."
"It is slow. When everybody is logged in, it does have a tendency to slow down. You can tell the connectivity slows down a little bit, but it's still a good product."
"I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features."
"We'd like more useful support."
"Pricing is a limitation. I think it's on the higher side, so if it were cheaper, it would benefit more organizations."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite complex."
"They could provide DLP integration for applications and specific user account security."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"I tried to use the tool on an encrypted disk, but it was inconvenient."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need for discounts to be offered by the solution since it is something that any organization can expect from the product."
