Citrix App Chromebook



Chromebook

Apart from installing the Chrome extension, you can run Citrix on all Windows, Mac, iOS, Linux, Android compatible operating systems. Is there a better alternative? VMware and XenApp provide. Traditionally on a Chromebook we would instruct users to download the Citrix Workspace App from the Play Store. This approached worked well. Launch the app, enter your credentials, launch an app. It was that simple AND is still that simple today.
