Summary

In this chapter, we looked at optimizing our user experience through the use of profile management, Citrix policies, Active Directory policies, and printing. All of these components are critical to maximizing our user experience, and therefore, the perception of our Citrix Environment. Each of these elements, if configured incorrectly, will negatively impact performance, so it is important to understand the role they play and the steps that optimize our platform.

In the next chapter, we will look at finalizing the implementation of our XenApp solution. This will include building our user workload and fine-tuning our server images. Once we have done this, we can perform our scalability and user acceptance testing. Once all of these steps are completed, we will be ready for our final push to a successful production rollout, including client deployment and extended monitoring.
