Choosing a Citrix Monitoring Strategy: Key Capabilities and Pitfalls to Avoid

In a recent Citrix Performance Management Survey conducted by eG Innovations and DABCC, 93% of respondents designated Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop as two of the most performance sensitive technologies in use in enterprise networks today. Slow logins, frequent session disconnects and slow screen refreshes are just some of common complaints that Citrix administrators have to deal with these days. Furthermore, often when a user complains that their desktop is slow or an application is slow to launch, the issue is not in the Citrix tiers – but instead in the network, the virtualization platform, or storage tiers. End-to-end visibility, root-cause diagnosis and proactive alerting are therefore key requirements for Citrix administrators.

In this on-demand webinar, Citrix Certified Expert Rob Beekmans, Senior Consultant with PQR, a Citrix Platinum Advisor, and Srinivas Ramanathan, CEO of eG Innovations, discuss the key requirements of effective Citrix performance monitoring as well as common pitfalls you need to avoid.
