We had a medium size fleet of macbook pros that we had deployed and had parallels already installed on them. We looked into a way to standardize and track these devices and started looking into Parallels as a solution to help us with this. Parallels was a good fit due to the fact that most of these machines already had the base system already installed
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.
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.
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.
We looked at a product called virtual box to do something similar to what we saw from Parallels but it was much more manual for us to deploy out the tool and we would have had to do a lot more work to manage all the systems we have in the fleet
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.
