Looking for Top Citrix Alternatives?
Inuvika OVD Enterprise is a virtual desktop solution that offers greater simplicity, better security and close to 60% TCO savings vs Citrix.
Why Consider Citrix Alternatives?
With the Citrix "file-based licensing" expiry date coming on April 15, 2026, many organizations are searching for alternative virtual desktop infrastructure solutions rather than being forced to migrate to a new Citrix license.
Increasing costs at Citrix, reduced product choice, support outsourced to third parties, growing complexity, and their disinterest in small to mid-sized customers are pushing customers to consider Citrix alternatives.
Whether you are looking for easier management, a product that works with any hypervisor, or a way to reduce the number of subscriptions that you require through concurrent user subscriptions, Inuvika OVD Enterprise should be at the top of your list.
It's time to consider a Citrix replacement built for today's hybrid work environments.
