OVD Enterprise is a cost-effective alternative to Citrix for delivering virtualized Windows and Linux apps to any device.
The Ideal Alternative to Citrix
OVD Enterprise is the solution for customers who want an easier, cost-effective alternative to Citrix Virtual Apps (formerly XenApp.)
OVD delivers Windows and Linux applications and shared desktops to any device. You'll benefit from the same security, device compatibility and user mobility, but without the cost and complexity.

No Extras Needed
