The virtualization of workstations is becoming an essential trend in digital workspace. While server virtualization is well established, desktop virtualization is rapidly gaining ground. It allows CIOs to optimize resource management by centralizing virtual machines on servers, rather than multiplying physical computers.
To simplify this management, the Endpoint Management Systems provide centralized administration, automated updates and advanced security measures for your workstations. However, when comparing the solutions available on the market, W360 stands out for its many strengths.
Citrix DaaS (formerly Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops) provides a complete virtualization solution that allows IT teams to control virtual machines, applications and security settings. This solution allows users to access their desktops and applications remotely, from any device.
However, W360 is an agile and innovative solution. It is located between the classic virtualization and the Desktop as a Service (DaaS) and allows to manage, deploy and maintain IT parks without requiring server infrastructure. Thanks to a single console, W360 offre une administration simple et efficace, idéale pour les entreprises souhaitant réduire leurs coûts et simplifier leur gestion IT.

Citrix offers a suite of software rich in features, but its ecosystem can quickly become complex. Identifying the right modules – between Citrix DaaS, Citrix Workspace App and Citrix Endpoint Management – often requires advanced technical skills. This complexity can be a drag for many companies.
W360, on the other hand proposes a solution all-in-one, intuitive and easy to handle. A single console manages all access, applications and virtualized workstations. This ease of use allows IT teams to focus on high value-added tasks, while reducing errors and administration time.
L’un des avantages majeurs de W360 réside dans sa tarification claire et flexible. Unlike Citrix, which charges based on resources used (RAM, CPU, storage, additional licenses), W360 adopte un modèle avec a cost per shift per month starting at 6.99€ for 12 months. This model allows companies to better control their costs, without hidden fees related to the installation or maintenance of servers.
With W360, you benefit from a powerful solution, easy to deploy and maintain, with no complex infrastructure or unforeseen costs. This translates into a significant reduction in the annual management cost of each workstation.
W360 is specially designed to provide optimal performance on desktops and laptops. Although the solution does not yet support smartphones and tablets, it ensures greater fluidity and speed on fixed and mobile devices. This specialization ensures a high-performance user experience for companies whose activity is mainly based on these devices.
In comparison, although Citrix offers cross-platform compatibility (including tablets and smartphones), its solution may sometimes prove less efficient for environments requiring specialized expertise on desktops and laptops.
W360 stands out for its simplicity, its transparent pricing and its expertise focused on desktops and laptops. Its all-in-one approach simplifies IT management and ensures optimal performance, without the complexities and additional costs associated with server infrastructure.
If your company is looking for a solution which is efficient, cost-effective and easy to deploy for the management of workstations, W360 est l’option idéale. Pour une compatibilité plus large incluant les tablettes et les smartphones, Citrix peut rester une alternative, mais pour la majorité des entreprises soucieuses de simplicité et d’optimisation des coûts, W360 provides undeniable added value.
