What do you like best about Citrix DaaS?

Citrix DaaD provides virtual desktops(VDIs) without operational overhead. We do not need to manage the infrastructure. Citrix manages and also provides best practices for us to use Citrix DaaS. The best thing about Citrix DaaS is that it's very easy to deploy, and they do the end-to-end deployment in the cloud and we can securely access them from anywhere with an internet connection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Citrix DaaS?

The subscription costs of Citrix DaaS are relatively high compared to that of Citrix on-prem VDIs and VMware Horizon VDIs, Apart from that there is nothing to dislike about Citrix DaaS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Citrix DaaS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Citrix DaaS is helping us to decrease the operational and management costs of our VDI practice. Citrix cloud gives us agility, scalability and reliability, which on-prem VDIs cannot offer. Citrix DaaS helped us in the rapid deployment of VMs and VDIs for us, which saved us a lot of time. Since the pandemic, most of our employees, as well as clients, have been working from home, so the Citrix DaaS VDIs played a crucial role in providing the users the computers in our organization securely.
