Citrix Health Check

The Citrix Health Check service enables you to evaluate the overall health of your Citrix environment to ensure that it has been implemented and maintained according to Citrix best practices. EACS consultants maintain the highest industry certifications and bring many years of experience and knowledge of designing, installing and configuring Citrix infrastructure solutions within customer environments.

In this service, an EACS Citrix Certified Technical Consultant will visit your site and spend time working alongside your IT Team to determine how the Citrix Infrastructure is being utilised. The consultant will document the configuration and the overall health of the Citrix environment with specific recommendations where appropriate. High risk areas will be highlighted as well as recommendations for improvements.

Typical Price: £2,500, subject to size and complexity of your Citrix environment.

Virtual Desktop Proof of Concept

This service is intended to demonstrate the capabilities of a Citrix XenDesktop solution as it applies to your unique environment. The POC includes at least three Citrix solutions (XenDesktop, XenServer, and Provisioning Services), which together provide a centralised and standardised desktop delivery infrastructure. Some POC environments may also include XenApp, which provides application hosting and streaming capabilities.

Conducting a POC is an important way to quickly validate preliminary assumptions regarding the use of Desktop Virtualisation within your organisation. To help you get started, EACS has packaged the following POC Services depending on your organisation’s needs. We support you by providing access to evaluation software, loan hardware where appropriate, and experienced Technical Consultants to work alongside your IT Team to implement the POC. Free Telephone Technical Support is also available for the first 30 days of the POC.
