What is Access Infrastructure?
Rapid Application
Deployment
Deploy business applications in minutes instead of months
Citrix Presentation Server is the industry-standard way to virtualize
the delivery of business applications through a centralized and
secure architecture. Presentation Server allows IT staff to centrally
deploy and manage business applications while providing secure access
to users from any location, on any network or device. It provides
an exceptional foundation on which to build highly scalable, flexible,
secure, manageable access solutions that reduce computing costs
and increase the utility of any information system.
Presentation Server enables organizations to deploy Windows®,
UNIX®, Java™ and Web-based business-critical applications
in minutes instead of weeks or even months. Because applications
reside and execute on the server, the time and costs of installing,
configuring and deploying applications to users is greatly reduced.
Citrix Presentation Server provides an application deployment platform
that is secure by design, to simplify and speed deployment of host-based,
Web-based, and desktop applications and information. IT staff can
provide secure anytime, anywhere, any-device, any-connection access
to the organization. Increase ROI by extending the life of existing
technology investments, while leveraging new applications and other
technologies such as Web and wireless.
Benefits include faster application deployment, lower TCO, and increased
IT productivity, resulting in shorter time to market for new products
and services, as well as more productive and satisfied end users.

Remote Office Connectivity
Seamlessly provision remote offices or newly acquired companies
Citrix Presentation Server enables you to configure, manage and
enable application access from one centralized location, reducing
the cost of provisioning branch offices individually. Improve time-to-value
for business expansion with accelerated delivery of ERP, CRM, SFA
and other line-of-business applications. Instantaneously deliver
secure, high-performance access to all applications and information
to remote offices, anywhere.
With their diverse set of networks and devices, supporting and maintaining
applications and information for remote offices and locations can
be overwhelming. Providing a high level of support to these remote
workers is critical to keep employee productivity and satisfaction
high. Citrix Presentation Server simplifies and streamlines the
deployment and maintenance of applications and information to remote
offices and offer secure communications, over any network and device.
Presentation Server simplifies the integration of branch offices
and remote offices, after business expansion or acquisition. Increase
IT productivity and reduce costs by eliminating IT travel to remote
offices to install new application or operating system software
or to upgrade desktop devices, typically required when deploying
new applications.
Benefits include improved remote access and support, yielding higher
user productivity and increased customer satisfaction.

Business Continuity
Keep the organization going — no matter what
Citrix Presentation Server helps ensure continuous business operations
— maintaining employee productivity and customer service. In
preparing for natural, man-made or technological disaster, today’s
management must be able to maintain nothing less than uninterrupted
connections for employees, customers, suppliers and business partners.
There can be no downtime.
In the case of unplanned interruption or disaster, employees can use
any computing device to access their mission-critical applications
and information, from anywhere, over any connection—wireless
to Web. If the datacenter is affected, Presentation Server will allow
you to redeploy all critical applications in the backup site more
quickly, potentially eliminating the need to rebuild networks and
desktops.
For application maintenance, all patches and updates are applied only
once on the server farm so updates are applied quickly and easily,
increasing IT productivity. Application maintenance is transparent
and there is no downtime or impact to end users. Remote and mobile
workers maintain productivity as Presentation Server eliminates the
need to update user devices.
Benefits include continuing operations, sales and customer service
during planned and unplanned outages, yielding higer sales and customer
satisfaction. |
