The Citrix vision is a world where anyone can work and play from anywhere.
To make this vision a reality, IT must transition from the slow, static, costly paradigm of application deployment to the responsive, agile, efficient approach of application delivery. With a strategic and architectural approach to application delivery, IT can become an enabler to business change rather than a road block. This will become a defining issue for IT over the next decade.
The pace of change for our customers is far exceeding expectations. There are opportunities for those who can seize the advantages of tapping into off shore talent, having granular control over information security, easily integrating acquisitions, quickly implementing reorganizations and smoothly handling workforce disruptions. Businesses without these capabilities will lag behind in an increasingly dynamic world—where the distance between people and applications steadily grows.
At Citrix, we’re convinced that the winners will be fluent with application delivery because they are the language of business. As such, we’ve assembled the broadest set of core technologies for application delivery. We are the leader in application virtualization and the only company to offer a comprehensive end-to-end infrastructure for application delivery that leverages server, application and desktop virtualization to make the entire IT infrastructure far more flexible and dynamic.
More than 215,000 organizations worldwide rely on Citrix to deliver any application to users anywhere with the best performance, highest security and lowest cost. Customers include 100% of the Fortune 100 companies and 99% of the Fortune Global 500, as well as hundreds of thousands of small businesses and prosumers. Citrix has approximately 6,200 partners in more than 100 countries. Annual revenue in 2006 was $1.1 billion.
