Citrix Access
Suite




Citrix Access Suite™
is the most complete solution available for providing
secure, on-demand access to any business information
resource – from anywhere, with any device, over any
network. The Access Suite unifies the key access
points, capabilities and technologies in a single
solution that eliminates the disadvantages of using
individual access products from different vendors:
fragmented management, performance degradation, security
gaps, incomplete visibility, vendor support issues,
training issues for the IT team, and sizeable
custom-integration costs
Introducing
4.5
In the new 4.5, the Access Suite bundles into a
scalable, flexible access platform the next generation
of three Citrix product lines:
Citrix Presentation Server**,
Citrix
Access Gateway* and
Citrix
Password Manager. Citrix Access Suite 4.5 provides
an always-on connection to information – whether data,
voice or people. It is secure by design, consolidates
access into a central location for more efficient
management and effective control, provides a robust and
resilient foundation that scales and adapts to support
business change and growth, and automatically adjusts to
thousands of dynamically changing access scenarios.
Introducing an Opportunity to Solve Your Business and IT
Challenges
Access Suite provides the best access experience for
users… the best access management for IT… the best
access security for the company… and the best economics
for everybody.
The
result?
Give users an access
experience that’s always the same – secure, easy,
instant:
- Provide secure
remote access to any resource, for any user,
anywhere – This means everything from
centralized applications hosted on Citrix
Presentation Server to network resources, Web
applications, e-mail, and even IP telephony.
- Shield users from
the complexity of connecting – Citrix
SmartAccess capability senses the users’ access
scenario as they connect and automatically responds
by filtering, re-routing and re-factoring their
access interface.
- Keep mobile,
roaming, and wireless users connected – Citrix
SmoothRoaming technology makes sure the users’
connection is Always-on as they move from device to
device, wired to wireless, office to office, site to
site.
- Make life easier
for users– With integrated single sign-on, users
can access all applications with a single password.
Manage, monitor, and measure access – from one
console:
- Make access
management a snap – Give new users access
instantly, deploy applications immediately, control
access and password policies holistically, and
configure action control easily, all with the Citrix
access management console. Simply snap it in to the
Microsoft Management Console.
- Propel
application deployment – Deploy any Windows,
Web, or UNIX application to one user or every user
in minutes or hours, instead of days or weeks.
- Operate IT like a
business – With visibility into user activity,
system performance and capacity, and IT service
usage, the IT group can introduce utility-style
cost-center billing, proactively manage Service
Level Agreements (SLA), forecast capacity planning,
and intelligently consolidate applications and
servers.
Deliver access with security that’s built in – not an
afterthought:
- Secure by design
– Overcome the security gaps of solutions created
with piece-part technologies from multiple vendors
with Citrix’s unified approach to access security.
- Granular access
control – Configure and manage policies for all
aspects of access, from end-point security to
password management and file-level control.
- Centralized
access architecture – Keep all information
safely protected within the data center while
maintaining its accessibility from anywhere.
Run IT for less – and support business initiatives
instead:
- Lower total cost
of ownership – By modernizing application
deployment, consolidating remote access
technologies, and simplifying password management,
Citrix Access Suite can decrease total cost of
ownership by more than 40%.
- Accelerate return
on investment – Integrate acquisitions on day
one, deliver IT services to new offices in days
versus weeks, and deploy applications company-wide
in hours.
- Leverage Citrix
Access Suite for multiple initiatives – Use the
Access Suite to support business initiatives such as
remote office connectivity, mobile computing,
partner access, CRM implementation, and regulatory
compliance.
- Grow IT with the
business – Scale linearly at a predictable cost
with a robust and resilient foundation that
streamlines IT service expansion and extends the
life of existing infrastructure investments.
