The gateway works, we've been using it for a while, on occasional basis. It 
works quite nicely, in fact, but with basically no granularity; it remains that 
if you're serving our the same apps to the same people then vanilla TS works 
fine - for small firms, it's great.

For anything more complex, you will probably need an add-on. Ericom provide a 
freebie (Then you pay if you want load-balancing features). For my money using 
Provision's...umm...vWorkspace (Recently renamed) is the direction we're going 
as our 'We don't need Citrix' solution - does everything we need for 
*waaaaaayyyyyyy* less money than Citrix.

And it beats Citrix's CSG by $0.00.

Citrix killer?  No...  There is still value that Citrix adds to Terminal 
Services above and beyond the stock product.  For smaller customers there is AE 
and for Medium to Enterprise there is XenApp Enterprise and Platinum.  For 
remote access, CSG is included in AE.  For larger customers there  is the CAG 
and AGE.

Subject: [THIN] TS Gateway - OT?

So it's been about a year that the MS TS Gateway has been around.  I've seen 
zero discussion of it on this board, I'm wondering what everyone's opinion is 
of it and if they have tested or implemented.  My architecture group seems to 
think it's a Citrix killer.  I don't.  I'm preparing my arguments now and would 
appreciate a sound off from the list on the subject.

Thanks all

Tom
