Liquidware Labs has recently been named by Citrix® as Citrix Ready® Partner of the month. Citrix has raised the bar, creating an amazing ecosystem of complementary solutions, as well as a dynamic and trustworthy process by which partners are tested and validated. We could not be more pleased with this honor.
Most importantly, however; this recognition speaks to the importance of user experience and the value third party solutions bring to Citrix XenDesktop, XenApp and Citrix Cloud environments. User experience is ultimately the best measure of success. And Liquidware Labs provides industry leading solutions that many Citrix customers have come to benefit from, including; Stratusphere UX for monitoring and diagnostics, ProfileUnity for advanced user environment management, and FlexApp Application Layering—all components required in the visibility and delivery of user experience.
Advanced Workspace Environment Management Solutions—Stratusphere UX, ProfileUnity and FlexApp
The first component, Stratusphere UX, offers the visibility necessary to make sound decisions. This includes the broad features of monitoring and diagnostics, but goes so much further in support of Citrix environments, specifically providing:
- Comprehensive User-Experience Monitoring
- Gain metrics beyond the limits of Microsoft SCOM pack monitoring
- Diagnose true root cause and identify resource constraints
- Optimize resource utilization and performance
- Know and pinpoint performance bottlenecks before they affect users
- Grow and scale XenApp and XenDesktop environments through ongoing performance optimization and health checks
For the management of the user environment itself, we offer ProfileUnity, which provides just in time delivery of user profiles, application and user rights management—all in a context-aware solution. ProfileUnity offers advanced features and capabilities that go well beyond what is available within the core Citrix platform, and includes:
- One user profile across Citrix XenApp, XenDesktop, DAAS & physical devices
- Up to 10X faster logons vs. roaming profiles or basic profile tools
- Upgrade Citrix Profile Manager Profiles to full Featured User Environment Management
- Seamless on-boarding of users to Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop
- Application and User Rights Management features
- Location/context-aware policy and profile capabilities
- Automated migration to Windows 7/8.1/10 and Server 2008/2012r2
Last, but certainly not least, FlexApp Application Layering delivers advanced features that provide extraordinary flexibility and value to both XenApp and XenDesktop-delivered applications. Application layering with FlexApp includes features that:
- Reduce the number of master desktop images to manage across XenApp and/or XenDesktop efficiently
- Deliver applications on demand, just-in-time
- Gain more granular application layering compatibility with innovative Micro Isolation
- Gain persistent user experience when deploying non-persistent infrastructure
- Provision application volumes as VHD and/or VMDK
- Fully compatible with Citrix Provisioning Services and Machine Creation Services
These three solutions are available from Liquidware Labs as the Essentials Suite, a comprehensive bundle that includes User Experience Monitoring and
Diagnostics, User Environment Management and Application Layering. We invite you to learn more about our Citrix Solution and Value, and thank Citrix again for this honor.
