High Citrix logon durations

Every Citrix VAD/DaaS engineering team is responsible for a healthy Citrix VAD or DaaS deployment (yes also DaaS). But the most important task is providing great user experience.

Is the team sure end users are actually getting that great user experience? Can they prove it? Are they going to be alarmed immediately whenever they are not and find the root cause quickly? Does the team know which users are affected. Are they able to quickly rule out it is the Citrix platform, and determine it must be something else? 

Imagine that for days, every morning end users having to wait for several minutes before they finally have been logged on into their virtual desktop, or before essential virtual desktop applications have been started, ready to provide those business critical services they need to do their tasks.

MetrixInsight for Citrix VAD/DaaS prevents this to happen as it alarms you whenever high logon durations occur. It provides you with detailed information on what steps the logon duration has been built of to see what has caused the issue and what components were involved.
