Wow…. I would LOVE to see anything you have from Citrix stating this.

Citrix has told us to use App-V not XenApp for our environment. Why that is, I don’t know.

Over the years I've tried to find use cases for App-V but I've never really found one that made sense. The non-persistent desktop model is definfantely an idea but if you have VDI you have XenApp so why use App-V?

Daniel I've implemented app-v in xendesktop VDI and with SCS enabled. My main concern is the publishing time for apps when users first login whilst they await the ConfigMgr policy run. Time for this to occur was dependent on the number and size of apps for the user. To get round this issue the apps were cached into the master image. Which, of course, reduced flexibility. Luckily smallish customer with minimal application set. On a larger scale this wouldn't work. Bear in mind this was a non persistent desktop.

I helped implement it, sequenced a few apps, evaluated AdminStudio, and integrated with ConfigMgr. I left the packaging team last year and since then they have had nothing but trouble. We pushed hard for App-V, but the number of support tickets outweighed the benefit on physical workstations. The other teams want to remove it completely and go back to legacy installs for everything. My last saving grace is we could definitely use Shared Content Store on VDI to save storage costs. Has anyone used SCS before or had any App-V + VDI implementations? Ideas? Thoughts? I see the benefit of App-V across the board, but Microsoft shows little to no push for it, and the issues we have had are making everyone else hate it.
