Reducing logon times in Azure Virtual Desktop (Windows Virtual Desktop) with Citrix

Azure Virtual Desktop is an Azure-only solution for cloud-hosted virtual apps and desktops. Minimizing user logon times is key to a great user experience and maintaining productivity – it’s the first thing users do to start their day in addition to throughout the day. Only Citrix can optimize Azure Virtual Desktop logons by more than 50% in typical environments using Citrix Workspace Environment Management (WEM) technology. Session pre-launch and lingering can further reduce logon times to near instant. Comprehensive monitoring and reporting allows admins to track logon optimizations over time and quickly spot any failures. The end result is the ability to do more with a lower overall TCO throughout the lifetime of the environment.
