Citrix XenDesktop is an enterprise-class virtual desktop solution that allows flexible delivery of virtual desktops and applications. The eG VDI Monitor provides performance monitoring, diagnosis and reporting for virtual desktop infrastructures like XenDesktop. It offers a single pane of glass view across all components, automatically baselines performance metrics, correlates data to automatically pinpoint issues, monitors activity inside individual desktops, tracks configuration changes, and reports on user sessions rather than just VMs. This helps reduce downtime, ensure user satisfaction, optimize resources, and efficiently scale virtual desktop deployments.
