Powerful IT Trends and Desktop Virtualization Best Practices
1. Intro:
Good
morning/a,ernoon
and
thanks
to
everyone
for
being
here.
I’m
NAME,
TITLE.
Today,
I’d
like
to
lead
a
conversaBon
dedicated
to
the
most
powerful
trends
affecBng
IT
today
as
well
as
the
ripple
effects
throughout
businesses
like
yours.
I
will
also
share
some
insights
and
best
pracBces
about
ways
to
help
people
do
their
jobs
more
efficiently
while
protecBng
and
advancing
the
business.
In
doing
so,
we
will
address:
Key
Points:
• Why
organizaBons
like
yours
are
recognizing
the
need
to
face
the
changing
realiBes
of
several
interconnected
trends
in
technology.
• What
Citrix
has
learned,
based
upon
years
of
successful
experience
with
customers,
about
what
organizaBons
need
to
create
a
successful
desktop
transformaBon
soluBon.
• How
Citrix
can
help
your
organizaBon
assess,
design
and
get
started
with
a
desktop
virtualizaBon
soluBon
that
best
addresses
your
needs.
Illustra9on/Anecdotes/Proof:
“I
just
presented
this
to
XYZ
COMPETITOR/ANOTHER
KNOWN
COMPANY,
and
some
of
the
things
they
said
were….”
Transi9on:
To
start,
it’s
important
to
understand
why
organizaBons
around
the
world
are
moving
in
this
direcBon,
and
why
they
believe
a
desktop
virtualizaBon
soluBon
is
essenBal
to
their
long-‐term
success.

8. one
of
the
newer
challenges
with
respect
to
delivering
enterprise
applicaBons,
is
how
do
you
make
these
applicaBons
accessible
on
all
the
different
types
of
devices
such
as
tablets
and
smartphones
without
having
to
rewrite
the
applicaBons
for
each
target
device.
So
to
solve
this
parBcular
challenge
a
new
capability
available
within
the
XenApp
and
XenDesktop
is
the
ability
to
dynamically
transform
an
applicaBon’s
UI
to
look
and
feel
like
the
naBve
UI
of
that
smartphone
device.
So
now,
your
exisBng
Windows
apps
adapt
to
the
way
users
interact

for

The
keyboard
pops
up

when
the

touches
into
a

entry
field
and
there’s
auto
scrolling
to
ensure
the
text
entry
field
is
visible
to
the
user
and
not
covered
up
by
the
on-‐screen
keyboard.
Another
mobile
UI
feature
introduced
is
auto
zoom
to
make
the
picker
controls
and
list
boxes
easier
to
use
in
Windows
applicaBons

Citrix
GPS
radio
and
camera
funcBons
are
also
accessible
from
our
mobile
Receivers.
Smooth
HD
video
and
audio
is
supported
bi-‐direcBonally
for

New
mulB-‐touch
gestures
are
supported
such
as
swipe
gesture
to
scroll
up
or
down,
pinch
and

gesture
supports
not

but
