Liquidware Labs Demos New Feature in ProfileUnity, the 2011 Citrix Ready Technology Solution of the Year Winner, at Citrix Synergy, Barcelona
New feature called FlexApp offers ability to capture and deploy user-installed applications within pooled virtual desktops, persistent virtual desktops and physical desktops – across all Flexcast models
BARCELONA, SPAIN, October 26, 2011 – Citrix Synergy - Stand #506 - Liquidware Labs, the leader in desktop transformation solutions, today announced the company will highlight a new feature called FlexApp in its ProfileUnity user-virtualization solution at Citrix Synergy, October 26-28 in Barcelona, Spain. FlexApp is an innovative feature that offers the ability to capture and deploy user-installed applications within pooled virtual desktops, persistent virtual desktops and physical desktops.
The 2011 Citrix Ready® Technology Solution of the Year at Citrix Synergy San Francisco 2011, ProfileUnity migrates the user state to Citrix XenDesktop® while also helping manage user profile, settings and persona across all the Flexcast models provided by Citrix XenDesktop Platinum. The solution rounds out Liquidware Labs VDI Essentials suite that includes Stratusphere FIT and Stratusphere UX to support every phase in a VDI project lifecycle.
Unlike other VDI vendors, Liquidware Labs offers a complete desktop transformation methodology that allows Citrix XenDesktop customers to quickly enable user virtualization and then assess which users and workloads are the best fit for XenDesktop and XenApp®. The Liquidware Labs methodology also allows Citrix customers to design pooled images for Provisioning Services and continually validate end-user experiences as they roll out Citrix XenDesktop in production environments.
Liquidware Labs products can be installed as a Citrix XenServer®-based virtual appliance or as a Hyper-V-based virtual appliance and do not require expensive build-outs of backend servers and systems. Liquidware Labs solutions are also Citrix Ready-verified.
Visit with Liquidware Labs at Stand #506 at Citrix Synergy to view these new VDI developments.
"As with all of our solutions, FlexApp significantly reduces the cost and complexity of deploying VDI solutions," said David Bieneman, Liquidware Labs Co-Founder and CEO. "Our goal is to help business overcome the barriers to VDI adoption, whether they are in the early, mid or production stages of a VDI deployment. Our award-winning and patented software, combined with the Citrix platform, offers one of the strongest ROI cases on the market, especially when you compare our low-cost of acquisition with the significant feature set we provide across our suite of products."
