Citrix
Secure the work
Citrix is an application delivery infrastructure platform that combines virtual apps and desktops, Zero Trust access, NetScaler networking, endpoint security, observability, and the XenServer hypervisor. It addresses the challenge of securely delivering enterprise applications to users across distributed environments, supporting on-premises and public cloud deployments on Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud, managed from a unified management plane.
Key capabilities include app and desktop virtualization with HDX technology for user experience, NetScaler application delivery controllers with one-pass architecture, auto-scaling, and global load balancing, Zero Trust network access for web, SaaS, and client-server apps, context-aware endpoint security controls, and Citrix observability for monitoring and troubleshooting across hybrid environments. XenServer serves as the hypervisor optimized for the platform.
Citrix is designed for enterprise IT teams managing complex, multi-vendor environments and distributed workforces. The platform is available through Citrix Platform Flex, a persona-based offering with a flexible license model and predictable cost, alongside subscription editions with a feature matrix for comparison.
