Simplify Delivery of Microsoft Office and Other Enterprise Applications into One Unified Access Environment

As companies grow in size and complexity, the disparate applications and information users need to remain productive become scattered across the corporate network. As a result, users are often required to access two or more systems to perform their daily tasks. A single, consistent interface that aggregates access to all applications and business information can improve employee productivity and satisfaction while lowering IT administration costs. To provide this interface, some organizations choose Windows® SharePoint Services™ technology in Windows Server™ 2003, while others adopt SharePoint Portal Server™ 2003, a secure, scalable, enterprise portal server built upon Windows SharePoint Services. In both cases, organizations struggle with how to provide secure access to all applications via SharePoint, without rewriting them or purchasing Web versions. These organizations need a solution that allows them to:
  • Give local and remote users a single point of access to all corporate resources, including published applications, from within a SharePoint site
  • Manage and deliver published applications and portal content from the same server
  • Control remote access to intellectual property, by keeping sensitive documents from ever leaving the datacenter
  • Provide full access to devices running legacy or non-Microsoft operating systems and older versions of Microsoft Office
  • Avoid the costs and delays of rewriting or upgrading legacy applications for SharePoint integration
Citrix XenApp (the new name for Presentation Server)
Current Environment: Traditional SharePoint Portal Server Deployment – Allows users to only access applications designed for SharePoint via the portal.

Benefit

This Citrix solution extends SharePoint’s information aggregation benefits by providing access to applications via the portal from any desktop, without allowing information to leave the datacenter.
