The new release of Citrix’s XenDesktop product aims to make desktop virtualization cheaper and friendlier for office workers, by increasing the number of desktops that one server can support while improving multimedia and voice delivery. In looking to differentiate its desktop virtualization products from what VMware is offering, Citrix is focusing on providing products for virtualization that offer what the company hopes is an end-to-end solution from the data center to the server to the individual desktop.
With the introduction of Citrix Systems’ XenDesktop 3 – the company’s signature desktop virtualization product – the application deliver specialist is trying to lower the cost of virtualization for IT, while providing a more seamless multimedia experience for office-based workers sitting in front of their desktops.
With XenDesktop 3, which Citrix officially releases Feb. 4, the virtualization software has been designed to handle both streamed and hosted desktops.
