Why Monitor Citrix StoreFront
Citrix StoreFront is the gateway to the Citrix services. Users connect to one of many StoreFront servers, get authenticated and access applications or desktops assigned to them. If Citrix StoreFront is down or slow to respond, users will not be able to access the Citrix services. This will lead to poor user experience and reduced business productivity. Hence, 24x7 monitoring and rapid troubleshooting of performance issues relating to Citrix StoreFront are important.
