Find out what your peers are saying about Citrix, Microsoft, VMware and others in Application Virtualization."Citrix offers a range of products that can be used straight out of the box."
"The product is simple to set up, and its deep integration with Microsoft is also a valuable feature."
"The tool helps me to connect with some apps of our company and resolve the tickets."
"Among the most valuable features is the Citrix Workspace, which allows us to drive that thin-client connection and the remote control/remote access capabilities. Those things have allowed us to connect an awful lot of people quickly from home and that's obviously helped during the pandemic."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the desktop virtualization, which allows me to connect from anywhere."
"It is a stable solution. We don't usually have problems with the platform...It is a very scalable solution."
"My focus has primarily been on publishing virtual applications."
"Citrix is one of the companies that is delivering virtual apps and desktops in a big way. They are mature enough to understand the level of stability required and deliver it."

"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"It has all of the features that we need to use and that we want to use."
"If an outside person tries to track or hack information, it is not possible without us being notified."
"AirWatch has one of the best User Interfaces and it's quite easy to figure out where particular items are within the menu system."
"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."
"It was easy to use."
"No issues with scalability."
"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."
"As an end-to-end solution for implementing Zero Trust principles I would rate it a six or a seven out of 10, because it doesn't cover all aspects of Zero Trust. There are quite a few aspects you need to cover."
"Direct connection of USB devices on the terminals to be used by streamed applications is very important for printing and the usage of token authentication, but the current version does not support this one hundred percent."
"The visibility the solution provides across SaaS, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments, for user and application traffic, is also limited if you do not enable all the services and is based on which services you are utilising. Citrix provides end-to-end visibility based on their services you are utilising."
"Latency is also a major problem when adopting Citrix for video editing software or 3D editing software, especially editing 4K video or large file size. The Citrix virtualized solution becomes too slow, so we cannot use the VDI."
"The solution's technical support is not so good."
"The initial setup is complex."
"I think Citrix's support is good, but sometimes it is a little slow."
"They need to adapt more quickly to the latest additions to the Microsoft operating system. If Windows 10 comes out with a new version, there are compatibility issues and it takes them a lot of time to release an update."

"Sometimes, we have challenges with remote patching and remote version upgrades."
"VMware Workspace ONE platform offers support for Mac Books and we see that there is some room for improvement in that area versus all the products out there."
"The solution needs to adapt to the cloud based reality of the current world model. Some customers may have reluctance to this, but it is the next level for all of the big providers. Azure, AWS and Google are all on the forefront of cloud-based solutions."
"The mobile device repository is somewhat difficult to manage with a large user base."
"Pricing is the only challenge right now. The licensing fee should be simplified a little bit. They have kept too many products as add ons. These need to be bundled with the low-cost, standard version. This will help customers in adopting this technology at a faster pace."
"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."
"Lacks a modern enterprise mobility management platform."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around. It required some API integration required because visitor integration was not there. For example, we are currently working on a tunnel issue, and VMware doesn't have this solution."
