Citrix Synergy 2015 is still underway at the Orange County Convention Center, in Orlando Florida. At the event, Citrix revealed how XenMobile has currently advanced as well as what is new when it comes to the platform. During the past week Citrix CEO, Mark Templeton, opened the event, where he shared the Citrix vision for IT Transformation.
Additionally, the company unveiled Citrix Workspace Cloud. According to Citrix, Workspace Cloud is a new platform which has been designed to simplify the on-demand delivery of a wide range of IT tools and services.
According to Citrix, the following updates have been made to the Xenmobile platform:
Workflows Optimised for Business with New Secure Business Apps: XenMobile continues to pioneer a broad set of core business-optimised mobile apps with integrated workflows to enrich the mobile user experience.
WorxTasks: WorxTasks integrates with Microsoft Outlook tasks, enabling users to work seamlessly across desktops, laptops and mobile devices to track, manage and edit their to-do lists on any device.
Citrix for Salesforce: Citrix is delivering the mobile Salesforce app with a new security wrapper, allowing enterprises to apply policies and manage the app within their EMM environment.
SlideStream: Users can access, view and deliver presentations using SlideStream on an external monitor with no cables required, and when paired with the new Apple Watch, presentations can be controlled with just a few quick swipes.
Enterprise-grade Mobility with an Enriched Partner Ecosystem: Citrix is working with many technology providers to offer enterprise-grade solutions, including:
Entrust and Intercede: To provide S/MIME support for WorxMail, allowing customers to sign and encrypt email securely.
Aternity: For application performance and real time end user experience monitoring and reporting.
AnyPresence: To accelerate secure mobile app development, extending XenMobile technology for app security and delivery to expose enterprise data sources to mobile users.
Kony: Working with Kony, a leading Mobile Application Development Platform provider, Citrix will enable customers to accelerate development of enterprise mobile apps for customers with mobile experiences that are easily integrated, customisable, and scalable with built in reporting and analytics.
Mobility Management Service from Citrix Workspace Cloud: Soon to be available as a test drive, the Workspace Cloud mobility management service will empower administrators to achieve fast time-to-value with the deployment of mobility services. Based on XenMobile technology, it will simplify the set-up and integration of mobility management with other Citrix services, and allow easier on-going management of a full, secure workspace environment.
