  • When users break or lose their computers, DaaS keeps their desktops the same regardless of the device they connect with.
  • DaaS cloud has had some outages recently that's had a negative affect.
  • Troubleshooting can take dedication, as Citrix points at everything besides its product.

Good virtual product, easy to use an manage.

  • Considering the amount of expensive laptop to purchase for some company it's great option and ROI.
  • Web-based applications are great to save software licenses as well where it allows user to access web servers to use the same app.
