And those clients need to cover numerous situations (badly written applications, OS upgrades, hotfixes, updates or service packs, single, dual or very large screens, and a client release should preferably work for all customers worldwide.

In Citrix’ defense, one must know that their clients run on many, many different platforms. The attitude “Download it, see if it works, good luck!” is a huge gap in Citrix’ service towards all customers.Īn experienced Citrix consultant told me recently that these client deployments have been causing so many headaches in his latest projects, he had to decide to exclude the deployment of the Citrix client from the project scope! The XenApp farm is built, or migrated, but any possible upgrade for the Citrix Client on the corporate desktops is not done by the consultants: “ Let the customer desktop support team deal with this mess!” Personally, I demand Free Citrix Support for anyone having problems with the installation of the client.

Almost every version includes new features, which cause new problems, while the admins just want to have the same client with all bugs fixed. Citrix developers should also clearly separate bugfixes with new features. I won’t go into the details of the most common issues that arise, but we can safely state that Citrix doesn’t have the best reputation when it comes to releasing new Citrix Clients.Ĭitrix can and SHOULD improve a lot on some weaker points: uniformity, proper communication on the implemented changes, clear version information, improved installation automatisation and decreased complexity. More often than not, the Citrix Client upgrade is not the favorite project of a Citrix administrator. Keeping the Citrix client versions up-to-date is important to create a stable Citrix Farm.
