Citrix XenDesktop: Customer Comments

Mayflower High School in Billericay

Steve Page, Network Manager, comments:

"We have a wide variety of workstations at the school at various ages. Each department has different demands on the use of ICT so we need to adopt a more flexible approach on how ICT is used but still making use of our existing technologies. We also had the challenge of introducing ICT into smaller areas but still ensuring that the student to computer ratio was still high.

We opted for XenDesktop from Precedence Technologies because it allowed us to provision standard PCs, manage thin-clients, provide processor pass-through for Flash-driven sites using thin-clients and a quick and effective way of managing servers. The flexibility to move clients and desktops around school has made the process quicker with a big benefit to the classroom.
