UPD is getting pretty close but it is not perfect. From our experience
ScrewDrivers and ThinPrint are pretty near perfect!

Thanks Jim for your information. It looks as it would be worth to try in my
evnironment.

 

The last question is. Is it really necessary to use either ScrewDrivers or
ThinPrint if the farm is setup to use UPD only?

We do it at the library I work for. There are a thousand users, rarely are
there that many logged on though. We average about 250 at any given time.
We run shifts and users share workstations with a standard desktop. Profiles
and users files are all stored a central location making backup immensely
eaiser. 

You just need a large enough raid array. We also offer Outlook to all our
users via Citrix.  While you are at it you could set up Citrix Secure
Gateway/WI and allow you to let your users work from home(or anywhere they
could an internet connection) if you wanted that.

Do you think it's worth to publish MS Office for about 1000 users and get
rid of MS Office from workstations? 

Do you know any major companies that have a large number of MS Office users
on Citrix?

If yes, I would apprieciate two or three companies names.

 

I will be really greatfull for information.
