Using a Citrix solution to centrally manage and deploy Lotus Notes enables efficient consolidation of Lotus® Domino® Servers, reducing administration costs by as much as 50 percent. Consolidation also reduces the cost of bandwidth used for replication. Further, the large Lotus Notes Client is hosted on Citrix Presentation Server™ software instead of the desktop, enabling non-Windows® devices to be used. Finally, users access the server farm with the Citrix ICA® client and enjoy secure, high-performance connectivity over low-bandwidth connections.  

Manasco, the IT services subsidiary of Belgium’s Etex Group, provided connectivity to the full suite of Lotus Notes and SAP software to thousands of users in ten countries using Citrix Presentation Server software, removing the need for local applications and maintenance. “Citrix Presentation Server uses our network bandwidth more efficiently, as business data stays on the central servers and no longer needs to be sent back and forth between local systems -- a significant cost element for an international business.” says Walter van de Wiele, Managing Director at Manasco.
