Driving down costs and enhancing organisational efficiency are top priorities in today's economy and with desktop management using up a large part of the IT budget, organisations are looking for alternatives to the traditional approach. Instead of a complex device loaded down with software, today's desktop should be centralised and delivered dynamically as a service to users anywhere. Desktop virtualisation delivers on this vision - centralising management, improving the user experience, reducing storage, and cutting the cost of ownership by up to 40 percent.

See below for AGENDA. REGISTER NOW for this FREE half-day event and discover why Citrix is the clear choice for desktop virtualisation.

The best desktop TCO - Centralising and simplifying desktop management throughout the desktop management lifecycle dramatically reduces desktop management overhead, storage and endpoint requirements; extends lifecycles of desktop hardware; and lowers power and cooling costs.

Single image desktop management - Maintaining a single master virtual desktop image in the datacentre and providing users with an up-to-date, pristine desktop at each logon drastically reduces patch and upgrade maintenance efforts, and cuts storage costs by up to 90 percent. XenDesktop also extends centralised desktop delivery to physical endpoints, while still centralising desktop management using a single image in the datacentre.

High definition user experience - Whether the desktops are hosted or local, XenDesktop ensures a high definition user experience from any device, on any network.

Open architecture - XenDesktop integrates with Citrix XenServer, Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware ESX, and works out-of-the-box with desktop appliances. This ensures an open, and flexible virtual desktop (VDI) implementation with no vendor lock-in for virtualisation or endpoint devices.
