If XenDesktop wasn't required by a customer, I would use something else

XenDesktop app on the VM requires very little resources to maintain itself and does not appear to have much of an impact on the utilization of the VM. Even with HDX RealTime Optimization Pack, Skype for Business still has issues with screen share, audio pass through, conference rooms. Microsoft Teams requires some custom configuring to make it work in XenDesktop.

The performance of XenDesktop is the best in the industry because of the fine-tuned protocol and years of updating. Overall, I don't think there is a better performer on the market. The question is if the added complexity of running XenDesktop is really worth the performance gain. While the latest version of XenDesktop is the easiest to deploy so far, it is still more challenging than the competitors.
