SoftGrid= more powerful and granular, more complicated

Citrix = generally works well, not as compatible with as many app scenarios, easier to user and admin, but may not support as many “difficult” apps

it works pretty well.  But if you are expecting it to be softgrid you are going to be disappointed and need to go find your nearest friendly reseller and buy Softgrid.

It is a similar product. I have not used Softgrid myself but I found the application streaming in Presentation Server to be robust enough and easy to use enough for my needs.

I am sure someone on this list has used both and can speak up as to the pros and cons of each.  My understanding is that they are about even save for one or two features one has over the other.

alot so I am hoping this works as well.

Subject: [THIN] Streaming Applications

Looking into streaming applications for PS 4.5 feature pack1(Xenapp). I
see
how to publish a streamng application and create a streaming profile. My
questions is creating the streaming application. The doc I am looking at
points the streaming app to a share for the application. I am assuming
the
streaming application was created with Softgrid or some other virtual
application technology. Is Citrix assuming you are using Softgrid or
does
citrix have a way of creating streaming applictions? I am just thinking
back when I used Softricity in the past we had to sequence the app and
place on the Softgrid server and have the softgrid client on the Citrix
box. Can anyone enlighten me on how your doing this?
