I 100% agree. VDI is a joke, I think or at least it is today. Yes, there are
some really good use cases, although don't ask me for any ;). But there are...
That being said in most cases you still have a fat PC so why have a desktop
on desktop. Is that not what we liked about MetaFrame, that we don't need a
desktop on desktop?
With PVS you don't have to deal with that... It works perfect... Perfect and
it is local and secure.. anyhoo...
I think VDI will be much better in a year once the broker venders get the bugs
worked out and can give us a native experience through a remote session and we
can get rid of our local machine for thin clients but then you have a cultural
issue.
But, if people want to use it I will learn it...
Again, this is why I like Provisioning Server. It is an amazing product and
I'm blown away Citrix downplays it. XenDesktop sucks compared to PVS. It
walks all over XenDesktop, in my view and I'm not saying XenDesktop is bad but
I just don't need another desktop right now...
But PVS... Now think about deploying ESX, XenSource, or Hyper-V through it and
then deploying OSes through it and then desktops... You can do everything in
seconds and DR is a snap.. WOW.. It is an amazing solution, period! IMHO

One of my planned topics is , "Is Provisioning Server to the desktop a better
VDI than VDI".....
I think PVS is the sleeping giant at Citrix.....

I don’t get it???
But, I actaully sat down one night and wrote 4 articles, one after another. I
had a few things I wanted to get out of me. One of those, which I will release
next week is title, “Citrix Provisioning Server, Why it is my Favorite Citrix
Technology”... So, that is Ardence.... But Where does Sean Penn come in to
play?
