2018 was a promising year for enterprise IT in general, and specifically for End User Computing (EUC). We saw many interesting developments with the Citrix stack. 2018 marked the end of life (EOL) of the widely popular XenApp 6.5 and consequently, a majority of organizations migrated to the new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops version 7.
A few weeks back, eG Innovations collaborated with David Wilkinson and conducted a webinar on the topic “Is Citrix Cloud Enterprise Ready? Best Practices to get the Most Out of Citrix Cloud Deployments.” Citrix Cloud implementations are growing in the industry today, and as organizations begin evaluating their cloud options, Citrix administration teams want to understand how Citrix Cloud will sustain, scale and be supported in lieu of on-premises Citrix deployments.
Citrix deployments – needless to say but let me say it nevertheless – are complicated. There are too many moving parts, various dependencies, and myriad configurations and customizations. Ultimately, organizations expect seamless connectivity and access to virtualized applications and desktops for their employees and partners whenever and wherever.
In a previous post, we discussed the capabilities and functionalities of Citrix Director, a built-in monitoring tool that is available as a part of Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop deployments. While Citrix Director provides high-level analytics about user sessions, user logon information and logon time breakdowns, connection failures, etc., is it designed to be the end-to-end, single-pane-of-glass performance management solution for Citrix Workspace environments?
Citrix Director is a web-based monitoring console for Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop virtualization platforms that allows administrators to control and monitor virtual applications and desktops. Starting with version 7, Citrix Director is the default management tool, replacing the erstwhile Citrix EdgeSight.
Iselin, NJ – January 3, 2018 - eG Innovations, a leading IT performance management software provider, today announced general availability of its latest product, eG Enterprise 6.3, that breaks important new ground for Citrix-driven organizations. eG Enterprise 6.3 offers the industry’s first full-featured performance monitoring capability for Citrix virtualized desktops and applications managed by a cloud service.
