- With IGEL and Citrix, Diversicare is able to scale its end user computing infrastructure without adding resources
“Repurposing the old hardware gave us exactly what we needed at each centre, even with many devices to deploy we were in and out within 30 minutes. The shift was basically transparent to the end users; and for IT, created a single, homogeneous desktop landscape that is easy to manage with a simple drag and drop interface.”
