[THIN] Re: Citrix User Profile Manager

Its odd but AppSense never really made a big impact Stateside :?

 

Their v8 has a whole sql backend infrastructure tho’ – their previous versions didn’t rely on a backend infrastructure. I think they’ve shot themselves in the foot tbh – probably only a flesh wound, but a wound non the less – what  they have/had v7 was very good; their app lockdown stuff is very handy and has no equivalent afaik. But, there are  a number of solutions that don’t need the infrastructure overhead for profile management that Appsense’s v8 solution needs.  The flip side is, of course, that the level of granularity in terms of processing control and profile rollback control is far higher with Appsense and would  need a number of tools and utilities to mimic using, say Citrix’s profile manager.

Hi Angela,

 

This should work on CPS 4.0 as it is more OS dependant than XenApp Specific.

I have used at a couple smaller sights where users are roaming between XenDesktop and XenApp.

 

Seems to be stable and very fast although I have noticed a couple of minor irritations that are probably of little consequence.

 

I have only used this in new environments and no legacy profiles to migrate.

 

It will indeed replace the roaming profile.

It does require a central location for storing profile data (this is not the roaming profile paths)

 

 

Peter

Hi

Does anyone know if Citrix User Profile Manager works with Presentation Server 4?
Would I be correct in assuming it replaces roaming profiles and would not require Terminal Server Profile Path settings in AD user object?
Is anyone using it and does it work well?

Thanks
Angela
