Very low on maintenance and can run stable for years on end. > > **Cons**: Citrix support is notoriously bad. I would recommend leveraging a third party consulting company for implementation and support of this and other Citrix products. > > Greta experience, would happily recommend this product a a great load balancer and content engine. ----- ### "User- friendly, I like being able to log on from my computer at home" — 4.0/5 > **Brianna** | *16 July 2018* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using Netscaler/ Citrix for the past 3 years at my place of employment. It is user- friendly, and I like being able to log on to my work files at home. We use Citrix throughout New York and Florida- and it's beneficial being able to view the shared drive among offices. > > **Cons**: Sometimes I am logged off of Citrix randomly, or it freezes company- wide and we have to call customer support to get it back and running. I have heard similar accounts from colleagues who work for different companies as well. > > Being able to access my work info from home, as well as being able to access company- wide info from an office- to- office basis. ----- ### "When you need a virtual desktop" — 4.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *26 April 2018* | Package/Freight Delivery > > **Pros**: There are times when an Apple environment just won't work and you need a virtual windows desktop environment. This allows an iPad to be used for almost anything including running Java applications. It is easy to setup and use. > > **Cons**: Anytime you run a windows environment on an Apple device there will be a slow down. The keyboard also doesn't always stay on the screen and sometimes blocks what you are trying to type. ----- ### "Unreliable" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 March 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have not found anything with this product to be particularly helpful. > > **Cons**: I find it unreliable and finicky to use very often. ----- ### "Application delivery driver in a single environment" — 5.0/5 > **Diogo** | *19 July 2019* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Citrix allows integration of employee access to a single controller. Therefore, it is easier to manage and control the accesses. Identify failures and incidents. > > **Cons**: There are some pre settings to use. And most of the time this hurts the use. Like the fact that the plugin only works on a particular operating system. The biggest problems are microinformatics ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/140408/netscaler?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/140408/netscaler) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
