Citrix XenDesktop vs. VMware Virtual Desktop Manager VDM
1. July 2008 by admin.
Interesting dilemma…
I have high profile client that has a unique VDI implementation that we did last year. At the time Leostream was initially selected as the Broker of choice but during the Design phase it was decided that we needed no broker at all. Part of the specifcations was to have the Thin Client boot directly to a specific VDI instance with no portal (again a very unique environment) So if you sit at seat 10 you get VDI instance 10, no matter what.
Eventually we modified the local devices to auto launch an RDP instance at startup to the specific VDI instance.
The Problem: Video sucks with RDP
At the time RDP was the only choice and we found a 3-5 second delay between audio/video (similar watching an old Godzilla movie)
The Solution: XenDEsktop
In our Solutions Center we setup both VDM 2.0 and Xendesktop for a bake off. Regardless of pools, and fetures the only requirement was to get video to wok better.
It DID.
Summary: if you need better video performance ICA still wins, hands down
See for yourself:
