solutions is the Citrix Delivery Center. These products include solutions for application, server and desktop

Products
Citrix Delivery Center is designed to offer comprehensive solutions across all dimensions of application,
server and desktop virtualization as well as application and network optimization. In many cases, IT
organizations have not taken a holistic, architectural approach to application delivery. Instead they have taken an
incremental approach creating IT systems for delivering applications that are too static, too complex, and costly
to maintain. With the realities of slow-growing technology budgets and fast-changing business needs the
strategic, architectural approach to application, server and desktop delivery that we offer has the capacity to
enable business change.
We package and market complete application, server, desktop virtualization solutions and related services as
Citrix Delivery Center. Internally, we organize our products into four principal groupings: Delivery Systems,
Virtualization and Management Systems, Online Services and Technical Services. This overview provides a
discussion of the major products and service offerings in these areas.
Delivery Systems
Our Delivery Systems are focused on developing and marketing technologies, solutions and products to
build on our leadership in application virtualization, application networking and desktop virtualization.
Application Virtualization
Citrix XenApp, the new name for Citrix Presentation Server™, is a widely-deployed application
virtualization solution that runs the business logic of applications on a central server, transmitting only
screen pixels, keystrokes, and mouse movements—no actual data—via an encrypted channel to users’
computers. Keeping applications under the centralized control of IT administrators enhances data
security and reduces the costs of managing separate clients and applications on every user’s desktop.
XenApp runs on virtually any platform, from Microsoft® Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition to
Windows Server 2003, Windows® 2000 Server and UNIX®. We offer XenApp as a stand alone
product in different editions. The Platinum Edition contains the most features of any version and adds
critical capabilities for application performance monitoring, SSL VPN remote access with SmartAccess
control and single sign-on application security. In early 2008, the Citrix Presentation Server product
was re-branded as the XenApp product.
Access Essentials™ is a secure, remote access product with simple centralized management of
information resources for organizations with up to 75 users. This relatively cost-effective software
turns a Windows Server into the secure access point for client-server applications, files and internal
Websites, and quickly delivers on-demand access to users at a convenient location. Access Essentials
both enables access and controls it, with wizard-driven installation and operation.
Application Networking
Citrix® NetScaler® Web application delivery solutions are purpose built appliances that accelerate
application performance up to five times, while simultaneously reducing datacenter costs. They provide
