Citrix Essentials was implemented speedily with technical requirements that met our organization's objectives
Citrix Essentials is being used across the organization by our Information Technology group and our locations in 10+ countries. We use it in Finance and Accounting to connect to a virtual server in our secure data center, adding another layer of protection from fraudsters should a laptop or PC be compromised. We use this incremental layer of multi-factor authentication with Citrix Essentials to protect us in our sensitive applications.
- It is flexible to log in, once you know how to do it, and then add and subtract applications in Google Chrome as the browser connected to Citrix Essentials.
- We appreciate that we can have another complicated password plus the multi-factor authentication and this was relatively easy for IT to set up for us.
- The price point was very reasonable since our IT group is currently a user and quickly deployed it to our finance department.
- We found that our IT group had problems connecting Citrix to Firefox and Internet Explorer, Chrome was preferred. Not sure if this was Citrix or just our IT group's knowledge.
- Our procedure manual would have been helped by easy screen instructions for the Citrix Essentials part of the implementation.
- Not sure if this applies to Citrix, but online or virtual training would have helped for on-boarding its use.

Citrix Essentials is okay, but not for us.
We used it to help our development clients anticipate and understand the proposal of changes we'd like to make to their UX design. The tool allowed them to understand our goals and align with the anticipation of delivery.
- User interface
- Support
- Integration
- Lack of capability for expansion
- Brand recognition
- Reputation in tech
