Customers Worldwide Adopt Citrix Workspace Suite to Enable Business MobilitySANTA CLARA, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Citrix today announced customers who are empowering a mobile workforce with Citrix Workspace Suite™, which unites its market-leading virtualization, mobility, networking and cloud services technologies to make it even easier for people to work anywhere. Since the launch of Citrix Workspace Suite at Citrix Synergy (News - Alert)™ in May 2014, customers around the world have embraced mobile workspaces, enabling thousands of people to gain instant, secure access to all apps, desktops, data and services from any device over any network. Citrix Workspace Suite addresses a critical industry need for a comprehensive and secure solution that integrates app and desktop virtualization, mobile app and device management, enterprise file sharing, WAN optimization and secure access to enable people to choose when, where and how work gets done. Accelerated globalization and the rapid proliferation of devices and app platforms has made mobility in the workplace both an expectation and a necessity, driving dramatic changes in how IT organizations respond. Today, with 61 percent of information workers working outside the office1 and using an average of three or more devices daily for work purposes2, businesses are struggling to embrace business mobility. However, mobility is not just about improving IT - 67 percent of organizations state that leveraging mobile to improve their business' ability to innovate is a high or critical priority3. Until now, organizations have had to rely on disparate technologies to support their desktop, mobile and app infrastructure, but standalone products are no longer meeting the requirements for a comprehensive business mobility strategy. "Different jobs will require different tools, and a worker's technology toolkit might include some permutation of a PC, tablet, smartphone, or even a wearable device," wrote Forrester (News - Alert) analyst Christian Kane in a recent report titled, The Future Of Mobile Device Management4. "A siloed management system that only works for mobile devices and not PCs will make it harder to take an employee-centric rather than a device-centric view." Citrix Workspace Suite brings together app, desktop, mobile and data services to provide people with a personalized mobile workspace that follows them no matter where they go, what device they use or how they are connected. This unique combination of Citrix technologies provides a comprehensive employee-centric unified management system for today's evolving mobile workforce. Businesses are already leveraging the power of the industry's most complete mobile workspace solution to simplify IT and reduce costs, while achieving increased business agility:
