This is a guest blog post by Michele Pelusi, Marketing Manager, U.S., 10ZiG Technology.

Citrix and 10ZiG Technology, with its thin and zero client endpoints and management software, are empowering long-term work-from-home (WFH) strategies. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, many companies rushed to support remote workers with laptops, tablets, or other “would-be” desk setup options. But these solutions often fell short when it came when it came to device management, security, and even ergonomics.

Organizations are seeing that WFH could become a permanent, and not just a long-term, option. IT departments are leveraging Citrix Cloud by using 10ZiG endpoint devices, along with the 10ZiG Manager™ centralized management console. For 10ZiG customers like the Phoenix Group and JCB Finance, the combination of 10ZiG and Citrix has enabled them to create a truer officer environment at home. One of the companies even hired a new manager for a group of 35 employees, and the manager still hasn’t stepped foot in the corporate office. How’s that for remote working?

Enterprises have found that with Citrix and 10ZiG employees are more productive and even have better posture because they are not taking mobile devices to the sofa, to the kitchen, or to bed — and they aren’t hunching over. Devices are set up just like an office desk with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. They are centrally managed with the 10ZiG Manager console, giving IT admins the assurance that endpoints at remote, unsecured locations have the same level of security and trust that they do as in office. Automated configuration and remote management are even more important now, and the combination of the 10ZiG Manager and 10ZiG’s Citrix Ready endpoints can facilitate this, regardless of whether they are at home or in the office.

In past five years, demand for unified communication and collaboration tools has grown thanks to products like Skype-for-Business, Microsoft Teams. This year, we’re seeing unprecedented growth due to the number of remote workers who rely on these tools now. Harnessing and supporting the technology advances that Citrix and its partners have made, like the optimization of Microsoft Teams or Zoom Plugin in Citrix VDI environments, have enabled 10ZiG to develop devices including the 10ZiG 6048qc, a zero-client that is Citrix Ready Premium-verified and delivers seamless audio and video quality.

The 10ZiG WFH solutions offer great performance, connectivity, and reliability, as well as an easy-to-use management console. Plus, Citrix Cloud as a single location to simplify delivery of Citrix technologies provides secure access to apps, data, and IT tools.
