Product overview
Citrix Receiver is the client component of XenDesktop or XenApp. Devices with Receiver installed are able to access full desktops via XenDesktop or individual applications via XenApp from a centralized host, such as a server or cloud infrastructure. The product's intended users are employees.
Citrix Receiver is not a standalone product and is included with XenApp and XenDesktop.
Reviews praised Citrix Receiver's reasonably fast loading time and flexibility in allowing remote desktop access from many different computer and mobile platforms. However, reviewers also criticized the iPhone version of the software for the difficulty of formatting text and prolonged typing, tasks that normally required a keyboard and mouse. The iPad version had similar accessibility issues, and the performance of flash applications was very limited. As a remedy, Citrix developed a mouse for iOS devices.
