Citrix Ready™ is the NEW Alliance Partner branding initiative designed to make it simple for customers to identify Alliance Partner products adding the greatest value to Citrix Application Delivery solutions.

I am sure those words bring smiles to a lot of peoples faces!

As Systems Engineers and Project Consultants we often get tasks to build Citrix farms and are asked to get some of the worst code possible to run on our Citrix farms and from time to time these applications bring our farms to their knees.

This partnership is one that will help us easily determine whether or not a product is Citrix ready allowing us to advise our customers accordingly.

Personally I think this is a great idea and will be supporting the initiative 100% although more often than not even if the application doesn't class as Citrix ready we will still need to install it, this will allow us to warn the customer before problems begin.
