This significant advancement allows Citrix and Liquidware customers to benefit from dynamic application deployment, reducing IT complexity and workloads. The integration offers seamless management of applications, supporting Citrix App layering, Microsoft MSIX, and Liquidware’s FlexApp. It provides a streamlined, efficient approach to application management without requiring additional architecture.

Jason E. Smith, VP of Alliances and Product Marketing at Liquidware, and Calvin Hsu, VP of Product Marketing at Citrix, discuss the impact and benefits of this integration.

  • Jason E. Smith, VP of Alliances and Product Marketing at Liquidware:  
    1) FlexApp significantly reduces IT complexity and workloads by enabling administrators to deploy applications dynamically. This streamlined approach can drastically lower the number of base images for a customer while aligning with Citrix solutions, enhancing the overall efficiency for their IT operations.  
     
    2) Joint customers benefit from the flexibility to choose (in Citrix Web Studio) from Citrix App layering, Microsoft MSIX, or Liquidware’s FlexApp, or even a combination of these. This adaptability ensures that we can tailor their application management strategies for their specific environments and needs. This integration is a significant advancement, providing an efficient and agile solution for application management, which is crucial for our joint customers’ evolving needs.
  • Calvin Hsu, VP of Product Marketing at Citrix:  
    1) One of the things that we’ve been working on more recently is the integration of Liquidware’s FlexApp into Citrix Web Studio.
     
    2) I always like to say our solution is built on choice and flexibility and diversity is the reality of the modern enterprise.
     
    3) The ongoing collaboration between Citrix and Liquidware is bringing immense value to the market.

Integration Details: FlexApp One creates portable, self-contained applications that can be attached to any Windows workspace or delivered as a published application within Citrix environments. The new integration point in Citrix Web Studio, developed by Citrix, enables FlexApp One packages to be discovered and presented directly in the Citrix Admin interface, allowing for easy deployment to users based on identity groups across the customer Citrix Enterprise.

Customers can easily trial the collaborative solution: Citrix DaaS customers on version 2311 or later can easily trial the solution by downloading prepackaged applications that are in the FlexApp One format. Further similar collaboration is planned for Citrix CVAD. Customers can easily leverage the new feature in Citrix Web Studio to discover and assign the FlexApp packages to end users.

The seamless and straightforward testing process is available at this link. 

Looking Ahead: Both companies are committed to ongoing innovation and evolution, ensuring that their digital employee experience solutions continue to lead the market. The collaboration between Citrix and Liquidware is bringing immense value to the market.
