Easy to setup and train a colleague for use. PXE boot is great as well within the application.

Pros
  • security: it allows remote wipe of a device
  • compartmentalization: when xenmobile is on the device, it can setup its own client, or have a set portion of the local mail client.
  • mobile support: with a web-based admin portal, no software needs to be setup on a PC to admin remotely [good for on-call techs]

  • Imaging endpoint is fast and easy and works well with the Instant task solution.
  • Driver installation. When all drivers exists on Remote Office it handles the needed driver installations with ease.
  • Allowing different templates based on customers make it easy to handle multiple customers and with different tasks for each customer the code prevents installation of task not for the customer in question.

Cons
  • Free / Busy functionality would be great
  • Interface changes more than I'd like
  • Better calendaring interface - more like Outlook would be nice.

  • ManageEngine OS Deployer some features really not needed with a hosted server
  • Forcing MFA should be a customer option.

Usability
The software's usability is what we expected. We knew what our organization needed and Citrix was able to meet our needs. The ability to have the apps on a mobile device has been a great plus and Citrix seems to have really developed a software based on the every day needs of the user.

As I mentioned earlier it's going there just a few more functions before it will have what's needed. When those functions are there it meets the required requirements for a complete product to manage deployments if endpoints.

Support Rating
Overall the support from the customer service team has been good. They are very timely and expert in resolving the tickets. They have appropriate knowledge to resolve issues in all stages to development. They were up to the point during the implementation stage of the XenMobile, all queries were answered in time to help finish the deployment. The support for last three years has been extraordinary in helping us use XenMobile effectively and efficiently.

Alternatives Considered
Because of its flexible configuration, XenMobile was a much better fit for us. ZixOne was a reliable, functional MDM product but only functioned in a sandboxed environment. Despite being sandboxed, it was able to push contacts into the native app; however, it could not do the same with calendar data which was where our providers had the biggest heartburn. They could handle segregation of email but did not like having to review two separate calendar applications.

Microsoft Deployment Tools, SCCM and Autopilot using Intune. ManageEngine OS Deployer is a combination of them just with another way of imaging. This make it easy to use and meets most demands to re-image an endpoint.

Return on Investment
  • It provided more safer environment to access corporate emails on personal device. This reduced costs for VPN and access control measures.
  • Most features are compliant with organizational security features, this reduced costs in third party vendor softwares.
  • Web based admin control portal is very efficient, there is no need to install desktop client for admin control. This saved a lot of time during initial deployment.
