San Francisco, CA, May 26, 2011 — RES Software, the proven leader in dynamic desktop solutions and a Citrix Ready® partner, today announced support for Citrix FlexCast™ delivery technology in Citrix XenDesktop®, providing joint customers a unified and consistent user experience across multiple delivery scenarios. FlexCast technology in XenDesktop gives organizations the flexibility to deliver a variety of virtual desktops and applications to users. RES Dynamic Desktop Studio works with Citrix desktop virtualization solutions to make the user experience more manageable, secure and consistent for both end users and IT administrators so that organizations can fully benefit from the adaptability that FlexCast technology provides.

XenDesktop with FlexCast technology gives organizations the ability to deliver multiple flavors of virtual desktops depending on end-user requirements. Each user receives a secure and optimized virtual desktop to address their specific business role and needs. Delivering service to users in an enterprise using a combination of virtual desktop technologies often requires the addition of workspace management and automation solutions to ensure that the user experience is uninterrupted and that each user has access to their personal settings and data, no matter how they are receiving their applications. RES Dynamic Desktop Studio enhances this experience in XenDesktop environments.

“XenDesktop with FlexCast technology is enabling our customers to realize the full benefits of virtual desktops, ensuring each user has the specific delivery model necessary to provide the desktop functionality they need to do their jobs,” said Mick Hollison, vice president of marketing, Desktop Division at Citrix. “The combination of RES Dynamic Desktop Studio with XenDesktop allows each desktop to be centrally managed from the datacenter and securely delivered to users anywhere they are located and on any device with a consistent, high performance experience.”

RES Software and FlexCast technology in XenDesktop provides a complete solution to maintain a unified and secure user experience efficiently and effectively, regardless of delivery model or endpoint device. RES Software Dynamic Desktop Studio is a centralized point through which IT can automate all of the tasks associated with managing and securing the user state, desktop, applications and data across the array of FlexCast delivery models, resulting in significantly reduced cost and complexity in managing the end user’s workspace in this new hybrid desktop environment.

“Technologies like FlexCast are making the delivery of multiple kinds of virtual desktops an effective option for organizations,” said Bob Janssen, CTO of RES Software. “RES supports the Citrix FlexCast model by providing a single console solution for managing and automating all aspects of a user’s experience across the variety of end-user devices and Citrix application delivery products.”

RES Software has also announced this week that it has been elevated to Citrix Ready® Leadership partner as a result of the positive impact its technology has on  IT’s ability to manage the user experience across Citrix desktop virtualization solutions.
