RES Software products verified for Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization Program
Amsterdam, The Netherlands - November 24, 2009 RES Software, the leader in User Workspace Management software, today announced that RES PowerFuse has been verified for the Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization Program.
Citrix Systems launched the new Citrix Ready™ Open Desktop Virtualization program to further accelerate large-scale enterprise virtual desktop deployments with Citrix® XenDesktop™. The Open Desktop Virtualization program helps make virtual desktops a safe choice for enterprise-wide deployment by eliminating the guess work and ensuring customers that XenDesktop 4 has been tested to work with the software, hardware and services they already use in their IT environments today.
Launched on October 6, 2009, and now available for download, XenDesktop 4, with its unique FlexCast™ delivery technology, is the first product in the industry to support every major desktop virtualization model in a single, integrated solution. The FlexCast delivery technology provides the architecture that allows customers to choose from any of the hosted or local virtual desktop delivery models available in one, easy-to-use solution, without locking them into a single, proprietary vendor model.
“RES Software has been a Citrix partner for 10 years, delivering enhanced value to our joint customers. The combination of Citrix XenDesktop 4 FlexCast delivery technology and RES PowerFuse provides all the functionality of a physical desktop but with the benefits of a virtual desktop with centralized management,” said Ron Grevink, vice president, marketing RES Software. “RES PowerFuse Workspace Extender™, a patented technology, enhances a virtual desktop with applications that run locally, providing customers with a true native-like experience. That, coupled with our ability to dynamically compose a personalized, secure and consistent user workspace, makes RES Software an ideal Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization program partner.”
“RES Software is a long-term collaborative partner of Citrix and is one of a select few vendors providing key security and personalization functionality in the Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization program,” said John Fanelli, vice president, solutions and community marketing, Citrix Systems. “We are extremely pleased to welcome RES Software into the program and look forward to continuing providing our joint customers with world-class desktop virtualization solutions.”
Verifying its products with the Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization program is an example of RES Software’s ongoing collaboration with Citrix. For more information on the Citrix Ready Open Desktop Virtualization program please visit http://www.citrix.com/odv.
