Hi All,
Just wondering what is the basic difference betyween the citrix server and terminal server.
1) Security point of view.
2) End-User point of view.
3) Network Bandwidth. etc. etc.
Best Regards

I don’t know about terminal servers, but we’ve had a Citrix server for quite some time. Network bandwidth impact is minimal and security is good. Ours had a Defender (hard token) in front of it so it was even more secure, a requirement of having so much sensitive data.
Once logged into Citrix the user is presented with a Citrix desktop from which you do your work. It works well, but after switching to VPN, I’m spoiled with having the same desktop as I see while at the office.
If you’d like more detailed information on Citrix, I could put you in touch with our Citrix administrator… just shoot me an e-mail and I’ll have her contact you.
