India, July 13,
2012: Citrix today
announced that Citrix
VDI-in-a-Box™ desktop
virtualization solution has been selected as a winner of the Tech
Awards Circle, taking
Silver in the Best Midrange Software Product category. Winners were
selected by an independent circle of publication reviewers and journalists from
nominations based on a broad range of achievements – from product and technology
innovations to talented executive leadership and engineering
innovators.
Tech Awards Circle
celebrates the products, vendors and individuals making a difference in the
industry today. The winners represent a broad range of achievements, from
hardware to software to services in consumer/SOHO, SMB, midrange, and enterprise
markets.
“Citrix exhibited
true industry excellence to be recognized among the top of the Tech Awards
Circle entrants,” said Kevin Anderson, awards program coordinator. “Our judges
were impressed with the level of submissions from all the vendors entering this
year’s competition, so to be named a winner of this prestigious award is a
testament to the quality and innovation shown by the winners in the high tech
community. We wish them continued success and look forward to them defending
their title during the next awards period.”
“We are witnessing
strong demand for desktop virtualization in the SMB market and are thrilled with
the growing market momentum of VDI-in-a-Box. Several industry awards this year
further validate our leadership in this space proving that businesses of all
sizes are now able to simply and affordably realize the benefits of desktop
virtualization – driving efficiency, improving scalability and enabling mobile
workstyles,” said Krishna Subramanian, vice president of marketing and partner
engagement at Citrix. “VDI-in-a-Box delivers all of these benefits in a simple
and affordable solution.”
Citrix VDI-in-a-Box
is a simple all-in-one VDI software appliance that enables Windows®
administrators to rapidly deliver centrally-managed virtual desktops to any
user, anytime, on any device – for less than the cost of new PCs. VDI-in-a-Box
provides built-in high-availability and eliminates over 60 percent of
traditional VDI infrastructure—including management servers and shared storage
(SANs) – by creating a grid of off-the-shelf servers using local storage. Citrix
announced earlier this year a technology preview of Project Aruba, which extends
the simple affordable all-in-one Citrix VDI-in-a-Box with personal vDisk
technology to reduce costs by delivering highly personalized virtual desktops
with the cost-efficiency of desktop pools.
