Citrix Receiver is a client application developed by Citrix Systems to connect individual devices to either XenApp or XenDesktop for desktop or application virtualization. It was first released in 2009.
Product overview
Citrix Receiver is a software client application developed by Citrix that is used in desktop and application virtualization to connect to XenDesktop or XenApp.[1] Devices with Receiver installed are able to access full desktops via XenDesktop or individual applications via XenApp from a centralized host, such as a server or cloud infrastructure.[2] The product's intended users are employees.[3]
Citrix Receiver is not a standalone product and is included with XenApp and XenDesktop.[4] Versions of Receiver are compatible with multiple platforms, including Android, iOS, and Windows, among others.[4]
Reviews praised Citrix Receiver's reasonably fast loading time[5] and flexibility in allowing remote desktop access from many different computer and mobile platforms.[6] However, reviewers also criticized the iPhone version of the software for the difficulty of formatting text and prolonged typing, tasks that normally required a keyboard and mouse.[6] The iPad version had similar accessibility issues, and the performance of flash applications was very limited.[5] As a remedy, Citrix developed a mouse for iOS devices.[7]
History
Prior to Receiver, Citrix had a different client for each of its products. The company developed Receiver to handle the management of those clients.[8] Citrix Receiver was announced in 2009 and the first version became available later that year.[9] Citrix Receiver won several mobility awards after its release, including a CRN Appy and "Best of Interop" award for Wireless & Mobility in 2011,[10] and a Global Mobile Award in 2012.[11]
