Hire company

Business issue

This company, with more than 150 branches across Australia and New Zealand, hires building and construction equipment for both DIY and professional tradespeople.

The client had an existing deployment of Citrix XenApp that was heavily utilized, and viewed as a strategic platform essential to day to day running of the business.  Given its strategic importance, the organisation wanted to ensure the platform remained current, keen to unlock new features as soon as they were released to market.

Ensyst was selected for this project based on our proven capabilities and experience to deliver the overall solution leveraging Citrix XenApp and NetScaler.

Solution

Ensyst assisted with design and implementation of a Citrix XenApp Delivery Site parallel to the existing XenApp farm.  During the pilot phase, Ensyst provided advice to help the client improve end-user experience, including a consistent experience across the branch network.

This deployment enabled the client to deliver published desktops on both corporate and personal devices, increasing productivity and staff retention.  They were also able to accelerate provisioning of new desktops and applications, and in combination with NetScaler Gateway, provide secure remote access and policy controls for external users.
