OK, as I wrote earlier today I went onto a research mission for today, looking at the alternatives for the 2x stuff. Looks like Citrix Presentation Server is just the software I’m looking for. Watched the demo’s on their website, which are quite impressing, but sadly don’t tell me everything I’d like to know.
Maybe I’ll ask some people in Greifswald and in the vicinity, how stuff works with Citrix. Maybe I should even get in contact with Citrix itself and ask for a test version, or some other sort of demonstration.
Yeah however the cost difference of Citrix compared to 2X is not negligable. I believe this link would prove interesting http://www.2x.com/applicationserver/citrix_comparison.htm
You’re quite right. I looked at the prices for a 50 users license for the Advanced Edition (basically that’s what covered by the 2x components) – and it’s way above (that’s a two with four 0’s on it) the price for licenses covering the same functionality.
