Why don't you have a bake off between the two? Setup a set of VMs for the two technologies and test them. You can download an eval copy of XenApp 6 with a 90-day license for 99 users. That way you can test and not spend any money, just time. See which works best for you and your users.
Webster From: Sean Rector [mailto:sean.rec...@vaopera.org] Subject: RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server? Yes and Yes. We're running it currently - but are investigating setting up a Consortium of arts companies. What further information would you need? It's a SQL server-based application - I completely understand separation of orgs within the app - it's the network/remote desktop part that I'm not 100% sure of how to set up. We'll be the keeper of the kingdom so to speak.

They don't provide much information on their software. BTW, there is no "-" in their URL. Is their software supported on TS/RDS/Citrix? Is it supported on R2? From: Sean Rector [mailto:sean.rec...@vaopera.org] Subject: RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server? It'll be Server 2008 R2, 64-bit. From: Webster [mailto:carlwebs...@gmail.com] Subject: RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server? Windows??? Do you mean 2003, 2008 or R2? If 2003 or 2008, 32-bit or 64-bit?

Windows - the application is Tessitura (http://www.tessitura-network.org), and is used for CRM & Ticketing for arts organizations. From: Webster [mailto:carlwebs...@gmail.com] Subject: RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server? What OS will you be hosting the application on? From: Sean Rector [mailto:sean.rec...@vaopera.org] Subject: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server? Hello, We're looking at hosting an application for several other arts organizations. My thinking is that we should use one of these two technologies - but I'm not sure which one. We're behind an ISA 2006 firewall, and we're looking at increasing our internet pipe to Cavalier's Ethernet over Copper product (from a T-1) at 5M. Whichever setup we go with, what logon set-up would be best - we're running a 2003 AD (soon to be 2008 R2). ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
