Any citrix users/experts, or users of thin client?

Hi,

at work we're in the process of switching to using Citrix rather than Terminal Services for our offshore teams. Presently most are using published apps, as we originally told that was best for us, but a more recent consultant says we'd be better of using published desktops, which for some of what we do, may be our only option anyway.

I was wondering if any of you guys have opinions from a user or support point of view.

http://www.brianmadden.com/ has a world of info, but I was after more feedback from people's experiences rather than "experts" saying what works best on paper


We were also told today the company is thinking of moving to a thin client model next year, for local UK office workers. They need to investigate whether the investment in software and servers would be cheaper than a PC upgrade/replacement plan. As an IT bloke it seems great, we have so many users with cr@p PCs, different models of PCs, and different ppl have different apps, it would be nice to only have to make changes in 1 or 2 places rather than visit loads of PCs

So, just wondering if anyone had real world experience of that.

Cheers

Al
