"It provides the flexibility of being used on any device which makes the employee experience better, in terms of ease of use."
"There are many features that I like, but the stability over the Internet is exceptional. Even if there's bandwidth fluctuation or network jitter, it performs well, offering a seamless experience to end-users without noticeable disruptions."

"The cost of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops is high and has room for improvement."

"There are a lot of shortfalls with supporting printing over XenApp."

But for folks like us, who will always be a hybrid model, that's of some concern."
"The product’s customization feature needs improvement."
"There are many latency and slowness issues, which are things looked after by Citrix."
"If anything could be improved, it might be some of the Director functionality, and some of the dashboard customization, or the overall Director customization."
