Mobile Workspace Market Set to Grow 15x by
2017
Citrix today announced customers who are transforming their
businesses with Citrix mobile workspace solutions, demonstrating
how its virtualization, networking and cloud services technologies
empower new ways for people to work better. With consumerization,
mobility and BYOD continuing to impact and evolve the workplace,
industry analysts estimate the emerging mobile workspaces market is
set to grow 15 times in the next three years1. With Citrix
XenDesktop®, XenApp®, XenMobile®, ShareFile®, GoToMeeting® and
NetScaler® offerings, Citrix continues to provide a complete mobile
workspace solution that securely delivers apps, desktops, files and
services to any user, on any device over any network – all with an
intuitive user experience. As a result, workers gain access to a
portable, always on, always connected working environment that
follows them no matter where they go, no matter what device they
choose to use, and no matter what method of connectivity they
happen to be leveraging. No other vendor provides the breadth of
capabilities – from app and desktop virtualization, to secure
mobile app and device management, to cloud networking – that are
needed to enable the delivery of comprehensive and personalized
mobile workspaces.
The mobile and cloud era is marked by the rapid emergence of
devices, app platforms, millennial generation, social media and
globalization that are driving dramatic changes in how IT
organizations respond. With 61 percent of information workers today
now working outside the office2 and using an average of three or
more devices a day for work purposes3, and 72 percent of workers
feeling unequipped with the technology necessary to get their jobs
done outside the office4, organizations are struggling with how to
embrace business mobility. Moreover, technology decision makers are
seeing security challenges in how to provide technology to these
workers, with 67 percent expressing concerns about data protection
on mobile devices5.
Today’s forward-thinking IT organizations are leveraging mobile
workspace solutions from Citrix to enable seamless access to
mobile, web and Windows apps, data and collaboration tools, while
securely delivering services regardless of where or how they need
to be accessed. As a result, they are achieving increased business
agility and transforming the way their employees and customers
work. Here are a few examples of how Citrix customers are
leveraging the power of a mobile workspace:
- Mobile workspaces deliver access to
patient records. A large U.S. healthcare organization needed a
solution to protect highly sensitive patient records while enabling
clinicians and doctors to access documents from anywhere. With the
implementation of a Citrix mobile workspace strategy, the
organization is now able to meet HIPAA compliance requirements and
deliver real-time access to critical patient information.
- Mobile workspaces enable Department
of Justice to meet compliance requirements. A state Department
of Justice (DOJ) provides its employees, including law enforcement
officers, with secure access to critical criminal justice
information on mobile devices while meeting department and
government compliance policies. Describing the technology as a “law
enforcement game changer,” the DOJ highlighted that the Citrix
mobile workspace solution has enabled them to increase productivity
across multiple departments.
- Mobile workspaces enable
collaboration. The need for secure mobility isn’t just limited
to traditional businesses. An elementary school leverages Citrix
collaboration technology to hold classes during a snowstorm to keep
from tacking on make-up days at the end of the school year.
Teachers were able to broadcast the scheduled lessons to their
students via iPads, allowing the students to attend classes from
home in a safe and secure environment.
“Mobile workspaces are playing a key role in addressing the new
organizational imperative around secure mobility,” said Mark
Bowker, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. “The Citrix
mobile workspace solution addresses these needs by providing
security and control for IT, while giving employees the flexibility
to work from anywhere, on the device of their choice with access to
all the apps, data and collaboration tools they need to work like
they are in the office.”
“Citrix has been providing customers access to apps and data
since it was founded 25 years ago,” said Steve Daheb, chief
marketing officer, Citrix. “As technology has become a seamless
part of people’s work and personal lives, Citrix has removed the
barriers for secure delivery of apps, desktops, files and services
to any user, on any device, anywhere. The variety of examples from
our customers speak for themselves. Each of them is leveraging the
industry’s most complete mobile workspace solution from Citrix to
empower people to choose when, where and how work gets done, giving
them a new level of freedom, flexibility and choice that is helping
organizations to succeed in this dynamic and transformative mobile
era.”
