Apologies for the wrap: http://www.brianmadden.com/blogs/brianmadden/archive/2009/10/09/citrix-s-change-to-per-named-user-xendesktop-licensing-are-they-really-screwing-everyone-or-are-people-over-reacting.aspx So basically Citrix is changing the license format from licenses for individual products to a single license. Our reseller informed me of this today. There is a "trade-up" program where you can trade in a single standard license (unnamed) to two named licences. For my agency, this really sucks, and this is no great deal for my agency. I have at least a 1:3 user to license ratio for XenApp, since many users are part-time, or some work-night, others day, and the load and license usage balances out. Now with "named user" licenses we need to purchase a license for every single user. I know part of this is to push XenDesktop. I've looked at it and really can't find a place for it here. As if XenApp isn't already expensive enough, now this.
