Here, we’re going to focus on two different approaches to cloud desktops by two different providers.

The first is Amazon WorkSpaces, a cloud-based virtual desktop solution that offers organizations the choice of providing Microsoft Windows, Amazon Linux and Ubuntu Linux desktop environments to their users. Then we’ll compare Amazon WorkSpaces to Cameyo, a Virtual App Delivery (VAD) platform that shifts the focus off the operating system and toward on-demand access to ALL your apps – Windows, Linux, SaaS, and internal web apps – from any device, regardless of OS.

By breaking things down like this, we’ll address some FAQs about each solution by looking at them through the lens of user experience, workloads, use cases, and pricing.

The basics of Amazon Workspaces

If you’re familiar with traditional virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), Amazon WorkSpaces functions largely in the same way. It’s the cloud-based iteration of VDI called desktop-as-a-service (DaaS). We won’t delve too deeply into those technology models here because we’ve teased out their distinctions previously in posts like this one and this one. The key difference between VDI and DaaS is that the latter takes the on-premises infrastructure of the former and migrates it into the cloud — and in the case of Amazon WorkSpaces, Amazon Web Services (AWS) specifically.

One of the attractive features of Amazon WorkSpaces is the apparent choice that it offers. It allows organizations to provision their users with virtual Microsoft Windows, Amazon Linux or Ubuntu Linux desktops. These desktop environments are known as WorkSpaces, and they’re hosted in the AWS cloud, the retail and software giant’s cloud-based infrastructure that powers large parts of the web. For this reason, an AWS account is a strict prerequisite.

Each WorkSpace is associated with a virtual private cloud (VPC). A VPC is a virtual network that’s not too dissimilar from a traditional on-premises network. At the same time, this is also where things get a little complicated. Admins are expected to configure their VPC by creating subnets, assigning IP addresses, identifying gateways and endpoints and linking their VPC back to on-premises networks via AWS Virtual Private Networks (AWS VPNs). There is extensive documentation and entire webinars around all these processes that would be difficult to summarize here.

On top of the VPC, IT will need to configure the directories to set up secure access for WorkSpaces users. These directories are managed via the AWS Directory Service. Here, too, organizations have multiple options: Simple AD, AD Connector, or the AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory (aka AWS Managed Microsoft AD). And, once again, there’s extensive documentation for all these directory types that’s beyond the scope of this comparison post.

What’s the user experience like? Amazon Workspaces users access their virtual desktops through a dedicated WorkSpaces client application from a supported endpoint device. Windows WorkSpaces can be accessed using a web browser like Firefox or Chrome. End users log in with their respective directory credentials (including multi-factor authentication), after which data traffic is relayed through multiple gateways. They then interact with the virtual desktop through the client.

What about WorkSpaces pricing? Amazon WorkSpaces pricing is incredibly complex. It’s based on variables like the number of virtual CPUs, RAM and storage available to each virtual desktop and charges monthly subscription fees or even hourly billing. There are so many plans and tiers that they can’t be condensed to a single description or table.

What are some WorkSpaces use cases? If end users need a full virtual desktop to support a particular high-performance or specialized workload, then Amazon WorkSpaces could make sense — provided IT is also prepared to configure the VPC, directory service and so on. They’ll also need to have devices that support the WorkSpaces client. Furthermore, both end users and IT will have to pick a lane when it comes to the operating system. The Windows version of Amazon WorkSpaces is needed to deliver Windows apps, and the Linux version is needed to deliver Linux apps.

The basics of Cameyo’s Virtual App Delivery

Cameyo is a streamlined, modern alternative to VDI and DaaS like Amazon WorkSpaces. Instead of delivering virtual desktops, Cameyo delivers virtual apps via an OS-agnostic cloud desktop. To that frame distinction another way, it’s the difference between handing end users an entire library and just giving them access to the books they need.

With Camyeo’s on-premises or cloud-based Virtual App Delivery (VAD) platform, Windows or Linux apps are “published” by means of a simple admin interface. Once published, end users can then securely access these apps from any device either through an HTML5 web browser or via progressive web apps (PWAs). It doesn’t matter what devices those users are on – Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, IGEL OS, Linux, iOS, Android, etc. Whereas Amazon WorkSpaces requires a client to run on each device in most cases, Cameyo is client-less. Any authorized user can access Cameyo-published apps from their device of choice.

The chief advantage here is that Cameyo does not deliver the Windows or Linux operating system to users but it does deliver the full desktop version of apps. This approach to virtualization is much more efficient because it isn’t attempting to replicate the full desktop experience on a remote endpoint. Furthermore, it enables organizations to deliver all their essential applications—from Windows and Linux to SaaS and internal web apps—to any device. Importantly, this applies to legacy apps as well. Cameyo eliminates the usual DevOps costs associated with app modernization because niche or legacy software titles can still be delivered to end users, regardless of the apps’ supported operating systems.

Additionally, rather than using granular configurations and pricing permutations as a substitute for freedom of choice, Cameyo offers flexibility where it counts. Organizations can use Cameyo’s fully hosted solution in Google Cloud or Azure. Customers can also opt to self-host Cameyo in any cloud, including AWS, or in their own on-premises data centers. By contrast, Amazon WorkSpaces only runs in the AWS cloud.

What’s the user experience like? In a word: seamless. Any authorized user has simple, secure access to Cameyo-published apps through your preferred SSO (including multi-factor authentication) provider and their native HTML5 web browser. They can easily work with Cameyo’s virtual apps alongside all the other software in their device environment.

What about Cameyo’s pricing? Cameyo has a simple, per-user/per-month pricing model. The fully-hosted version of Cameyo also includes the necessary RDS cals AND includes cloud usage, eliminating the bill shock associated with so many virtual desktop products. If you’re planning to self-host Cameyo in your own on-premises or cloud environment, then RDS cals and usage are not included, but the per-user price is reduced as a result. Get in touch with us and we’ll give you a personalized quote based on your requirements.

What are some VAD use cases? Because of its versatility and “as-needed, on-demand” delivery model, Cameyo lets you scale and optimize its use for your specific implementation. That makes it ideal for everything from small business all the way up to Fotune 500 enterprises with 50,000+ employees. Its architecture is also perfect for organizations that have adopted or are looking to adopt Zero Trust policies. This is because Cameyo is built on a Zero Trust security model that locks down RDP ports (here’s why that’s so important), and it eliminates the need for risk-prone VPNs.

VAD is the app-centric alternative to Amazon WorkSpaces

Despite the cloud credentials of AWS, Amazon WorkSpaces is still an old-school approach to virtualization. Virtual desktops are costly, complex, often have security issues, and don’t deliver a seamless end-user experience. And the options that Amazon WorkSpaces provides are still limited by being bound to AWS cloud, the WorkSpaces client and the Windows or Linux operating systems. 

Virtual App Delivery represents a more agile, scalable, cost-effective and flexible approach to getting apps in the hands of end users on any device. It gives users a true cloud desktop — a digital workspace that adapts to their usage and environment while also enhancing network security for your organization.

If your organization utilizes Citrix products and services (like Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops/Citrix XenApp/XenDesktop) for desktop virtualization or remote desktops, you may be concerned about the future of the organization and what this will mean for its ongoing support and development of the digital workspace and remote access technologies you rely on. And there’s little doubt that Citrix will continue to undergo significant organizational changes as its acquisition shakes out. 

So what does this mean for you? 

In times like these, organizations are presented with a significant opportunity to evaluate their existing strategies and contracts. And the good news is, if you’re looking to make a change due to the current market uncertainty, you have opportunities to significantly reduce costs, all while improving your end users’ experience and increasing your organization’s overall security posture.  

But how do you determine whether or not now is the right time to make the switch from Citrix? We spoke with over a dozen organizations that have already made the switch from Citrix to Cameyo, and also spoke with former Citrix employees, to develop a list of questions your organization can ask itself to help you evaluate. 

 6 Questions to Help Determine if it’s Time to Switch from Citrix

 #1 – Do you want to simplify your VDI environment?

Citrix’s three decades of VDI solutions also means that those products have three decades’ worth of accumulated legacy technology, engineering pivots, and integrations of acquired technologies that increase the overall attack surface and complexity. You can see the weight of all this history in the many components that are involved in a typical Citrix deployment – Citrix Delivery Controller, Citrix Workspace (formerly Citrix Receiver, Citrix HDX, Citrix StoreFront, Provisioning Services, Citrix ADC (formerly Citrix NetScaler) and more.

All of these components add significantly not only to the complexity of the upfront implementation, but it continues to make them expensive and complex to operate on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, in an age of increasing ransomware threats, the large attack surface created by all of these components requires even more vigilance and oversight.

Which is why the industry is undergoing a shift from legacy virtual desktops (both VDI and DaaS) to cloud-native Cloud Desktops. It’s time to stop thinking that the primary function of virtual desktops is simply to replicate the classic operating-system-based PC desktop experience, because when you do so (as Citrix does), you deliver all of the complexity and security issues of that model in a virtual format. 

Virtual App Delivery (VAD) rethinks and radically simplifies the virtual desktop environment for the cloud era. After all, unlike VDI (whether it’s Citrix or one of its alternatives), Virtual App Delivery isn’t a legacy virtualization approach that has had to be re-engineered to take advantage of the public cloud. VAD was born in the cloud and designed from the very beginning for the Cloud Desktop needs of today’s organizations.

As the pioneer in Virtual App Delivery, Cameyo’s approach to Cloud Desktops is better suited to most use cases than VDI. Instead of trying to furnish end users with Windows OS-based digital workspaces, Cameyo gives users secure, Windows OS-independent cloud desktops that deliver all of the apps they need to be productive. Because Cameyo is cloud-native, users can access those apps on any device either through any HTML5 browser or as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). And better yet, Cameyo’s zero trust security model enables you to eliminate VPNs.

Ur&Penn offers a perfect case in point. After disappointing results with Citrix, this leading Swedish retailer discovered Cameyo. Within a few hours of deploying Cameyo’s VAD platform, Ur&Penn’s employees were working with business-critical apps on their Chromebooks.

“Unlike Citrix, there is no complicated infrastructure to deploy and manage. Not only were we up and running with Cameyo in less than three hours, but we can also deploy new apps almost instantly. We never have to re-image or deal with a Golden Image. Cameyo could not be easier,” said Emir Saffar, CIO at retailer Ur&Penn.

Or take a look at what Klarahill had to say:

“People pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to build this themselves on-prem, and with Cameyo you get this for a few dollars per month per user – all without any of the complexity of deploying and managing VDI or DaaS environments. And you don’t have to give anything up in exchange for that simplicity and cost savings. Cameyo has everything – incredible security, great user experience, backup, power saving, clustering, elasticity – it’s really amazing,” said Adam Nerell, Head of IT for Klarahill.

#2 – Do you wish you had better support from Citrix?

A consistent theme we see from Cameyo customers who made the switch from Citrix to Cameyo is a deep dissatisfaction with Citrix’s support, especially in the age of remote work. Not only the quality of the support, but the ongoing increases in support & maintenance costs (more on that later). 

Now with the acquisition, merger with Tibco, and layoffs – support is an elevated concern. If you are not one of Citrix’s top customers globally, then the level of support you experience today will likely degrade even more in the coming year. So if you’re already unhappy with Citrix support, then it may be time to switch.

Here at Cameyo, we take enormous pride in the following:

• Having a product that was purposefully engineered to be simpler and more secure, which requires significantly less support overall.
• When customers do need support, Cameyo provides extremely quick (usually within hours) and comprehensive support, which our customers consistently rave about (see below). 
• Unlike our competitors, Cameyo support is and always has been completely FREE. 

Now, in case you’re thinking that “you get what you pay for” and are concerned about the quality of Cameyo’s free support, it’s worth noting that the quality of our support in one of the most frequently noted items in our case studies and in our customer reviews on G2. For example:

“The level of support we’ve received from Cameyo has been phenomenal. We get extremely quick responses and engagement from top-notch engineers who really know this technology. They will spend as much time with me as I want to make sure that I have the information I need, but they’ve also let me know that at any time I can pass things over to them and they’ll take care of it if I prefer. I’m simply not going to get that from Citrix. I’d have to hire additional consultants to handle all of that,” said Brian Stopinski, Corporate IT Operations Director, Community Hospital Corp. (CHC).

“It’s worth noting that Cameyo’s support team is top notch. Every step of the way, with any questions we had, the support team was right there to walk us through it. And they didn’t just try to quickly fix things so that they could close the ticket – they really took the time to make sure we were fully trained and understood how to configure everything ourselves. Our experience has been phenomenal,” said Jim Froio, LAN Support Technician at Baldwinsville Central School District.

#3 – Do you wish you could solve user profile bloat?

“For organizations that are looking to migrate to the cloud, roaming user profile bloat is holding them back. Microsoft Active Directory and roaming user profiles are not a fit for the cloud – they are complex, and negatively impact the user experience,” said Eyal Dotan, Founder and CTO of Cameyo. “Virtualization solutions that rely on roaming user profiles fall into the trap of constantly trying to sync modern technology with the past instead of clearing the path for cloud-native technologies by eliminating the dependence on Active Directory and on-premise components.” 

With legacy VDI and DaaS solutions, everything the user has ever done is pulled into each session. This causes user profiles to swell to dozens if not hundreds of gigabytes in size, resulting in significant performance issues for the end user. Cameyo’s Temporary User Profiles technology eliminates this user profile bloat associated with Active Directory, enabling Cameyo to deliver a seamless, secure Cloud Desktop experience for end users. Cameyo’s Temporary User Profiles technology was recently patented (Cameyo’s second issued patent in 5 years with more pending), but it has been in use by hundreds of enterprise customers – including Fortune 500 organizations – for years. 

So How Do Cameyo’s Temporary User Profiles Work? 

Here’s an outline of how Cameyo’s Temporary User Profiles technology works:

• Cameyo creates Temporary User Profiles that are not tied to Active Directory.
• When a user is ready to start a session, Cameyo generates an ultra-secure, one-time password.
• Cameyo then allows the user to connect with a Temporary User Profile.
• To make sure each temporary session is familiar to the user and where they left off, Cameyo brings back the data from a user’s previous session with its unique Session Sync technology. 
• For example – a hybrid worker who splits time between home and the office can access all of their apps from anywhere, and their data from previous sessions always follows them so that they can continue to work when they log back in.
• Whenever they log off, Cameyo wipes that session, but sync the user’s session data with Session Sync.
• When the user logs back on, Cameyo could be serving them from a totally different server with a brand new, temporary Windows user profile just for that session – while still preserving their data from one session to the next.

If you’re looking to eliminate roaming user profile bloat, Cameyo’s patented Temporary User Profiles technology helps you accomplish exactly that. 

#4 – Do you wish you had fewer support tickets from your VDI users?

Another common theme we hear from IT pros currently utilizing Citrix is that they tend to be so buried with end user support tickets related to the user experience that IT spends a disproportionate amount of time helping end users with Citrix issues than they do the rest of their job. 

If this sounds familiar, and you wish you had a product that your end-users loved while making them more productive, then it may be time to make a change from Citrix. 

In addition to end-user support tickets being a huge drain on your time, they are also indicative of a drain on your end-users’ productivity. And studies show that more and more remote & hybrid workers are willing to change jobs if they don’t have the tools they need to be productive. More specifically, a report from Adobe titled “State of Work: How COVID-19 changed digital work” found that close to half of all workers said they were likely to leave their job because of outdated technology.

#5 – Are you tired of constant EOL notifications and forced upgrades?

Does the term “LTSR” give you shivers? We consistently hear that Citrix’s Long Term Service Release (LTSR) program is an ongoing source of pain and frustration. And it’s no wonder why. Take a look at just one part of their LTSR description:

For each LTSR, you may purchase 5 years of Customer Success Services (CSS) mainstream support.  You must remain on CSS supported LTSR products, editions and license models for LTSR mainstream support.  LTSR products (both on-premises and Cloud) will move though lifecycle phases under the Product Lifecycle Support Policy.  If support for an LTSR product, edition and/or license model ends before mainstream support for the LTSR ends, you must transition to a supported LTSR product, edition and license model to maintain mainstream support, and to be able to purchase extended support, if available.

The last line is a particular source of friction for most Citrix customers: “If support for an LTSR product, edition and/or license model ends before mainstream support for the LTSR ends, you must transition to a supported LTSR product, edition and license model to maintain mainstream support, and to be able to purchase extended support, if available.”

Granted, these transitions and forced upgrades wouldn’t be too painful if Citrix didn’t end-of-life (EOL) products very frequently. But unfortunately, they do. So much so that they have an entire page dedicated just to a glossary of all the various “lifecycle phases” – from End of Renewal( EOR), to End of Maintenance (EOM), to End of Life (EOL), to End of Service (EOSRV) and more – for its products. They also have an entire page dedicated to tracking the current EOL cycle for 29 different products and components. 

If you’re tired of the constant EOL notifications and the resulting forced (and costly) upgrades that are required to be in compliance from a support perspective, then it’s time to make a change from Citrix. 

Here at Cameyo, we only have one product (which takes the place of dozens of Citrix products), so there are no “end of life” announcements. Also, all new features and functionalities are provided to all customers at no additional cost. 

With Cameyo, you purchase once, and you never have to upgrade. 

That’s right – in the 5 years that Cameyo has been in business, we have never charged upgrade fees for customers to access new features, functionalities, or technologies. So we never use new capabilities as a lever to force customers to upgrade, which means you never have to worry about whether you’re in compliance for your service contract.

Besides, as discussed in question #2, here at Cameyo support is always free.

#6 – Are you being pressured to move to Citrix’s cloud product?

In recent years, Citrix has tried to push it’s legacy VDI products into the cloud and package those as a desktop-as-a-service (DaaS) offering. Traditionally, DaaS solutions take the components of conventional virtual desktops and swap out some or all of the on-premises components for cloud infrastructure. The general idea is that this will allow them to feature more public cloud integration and adopt something closer to SaaS pricing models (though Citrix’s “DaaS’ pricing models are notoriously hard to parse). At the end of the day, though, these Citrix cloud-based desktop services can’t escape their roots in legacy VDI and retain a lot of the same caveats.

But that has not prevented Citrix from making a large push to try to force existing customers into their so-called DaaS offering. 

In our conversations with former Citrix customers, we’ve often heard that this pressure to move to Citrix’s cloud option is not welcome because either the customer is  1) not ready to move to the cloud, and/or 2) moving to Citrix’s cloud version actually increases costs for the customer. 

So if you answered yes to this question and you’re tired of being pressured to move to Citrix’s cloud offering (or being forced into Microsoft Azure for that matter), Cameyo offers a self-hosted version of our platform that gives you the flexibility to securely deliver your apps from the environment of your choice, while at the same time decreasing your costs, simplifying management, and significantly increasing security. 

Conclusion

It’s logical to be concerned about how the turbulence of Citrix’s acquisition will impact you as a customer (the same can be said for VMware’s acquisition and the fate of VMware Horizon). But there is opportunity in this uncertainty. Just as the acquisition marks a changing of the guard from legacy VDI/DaaS to Cloud Desktops/Virtual App Delivery (VAD), it also marks an opportunity for your organization to migrate and adopt cloud computing solutions that can significantly reduce your costs, deliver a better user experience, and increase your organization’s overall security. 

We have dozens of case studies (here) where you can read more about the experience of companies who have already made the shift from Citrix to Cameyo’s Virtual App Delivery (VAD) and have experienced the cost-effective scalability of Cameyo while eliminating the need for Windows desktops. And we’re happy to put you in touch with customer references so you can hear more about their experiences. 

We understand your uncertainty and would be happy to discuss your options – even if it turns out that Cameyo isn’t the right fit. Schedule a personalized demo to discuss, and on that call we can also get you set up with your own demo environment to test within minutes. Or you can get started with your own free trial here.

1. Enable all of your people to be productive from anywhere and on any device
2. Reduce the overall cost of your IT operations

When thinking about traditional virtual desktops infrastructure (VDI) or Desktop as a Service (DaaS) solutions, enabling goal #1 with those legacy solutions is often diametrically opposed to accomplishing goal #2. Which is where Cameyo’s cloud-first Virtual App Delivery (VAD) platform comes in, and why we’re excited to introduce our new Cameyo for Linux service to enable organizations to make their digital workspaces even more efficient and cost-effective. 

While Cameyo’s existing VAD platform enables the delivery of all Windows, SaaS, and internal web apps to any device – Cameyo for Linux extends that capability to Linux applications as well as internal web apps that don’t require a Windows server. This dramatically reduces the cost of delivering Cloud Desktops by eliminating the need for costly Microsoft Remote Desktop Services Client Access Licenses (RDS CALs) while providing organizations with the flexibility they need to use their preferred solutions. 

“Many organizations today use a combination of SaaS-enabled productivity apps and then utilize Virtual App Delivery solutions like Cameyo for all of their business-critical apps that are not fully web-enabled,” said Gabe Knuth, Senior Analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). “But there are also a lot of organizations where the only apps holding them back from accessing everything from any device are their Linux databases & apps. With the addition of Cameyo for Linux, organizations can now deliver all of their apps – SaaS, Windows, internal web apps, and Linux – to any device with Cameyo.”

Making Cloud Desktops More Efficient and Cost-Effective

“Here at Sanmina we’re always looking for ways to make our operations more secure, efficient, and cost-effective. This is what originally brought us to Cameyo, and we’ve used Cameyo for several years to give our employees secure access to all of their apps on Chromebooks,” said Mario Zúñiga, IT Director, Digital Workplace at Sanmina. “Now with Cameyo for Linux, we’re able to deliver several of our internal web apps on Linux servers instead of Windows servers. Because of the efficiency of Linux, Cameyo for Linux will allow us to serve more users per server. This also eliminates the need for RDS CALs, which dramatically reduces the cost of our digital workspace initiatives while giving us more flexibility.” 

Cameyo has long been used by organizations of all sizes as a more secure, simple, flexible and cost-effective alternative to legacy virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and Desktop as a Service (DaaS) products. The introduction of Cameyo for Linux further helps organizations:

• • Streamline Infrastructure – Linux servers have less overhead than Windows servers. For any organization utilizing apps & databases that don’t require a Windows server, Cameyo for Linux provides a more efficient solution. And with Cameyo’s fully-hosted option, organizations can deliver their apps on Linux servers without the need to actively manage the supporting infrastructure themselves. 
  • Reduce Costs – Cameyo for Linux helps reduce the cost of digital workspaces in two ways:
    • Microsoft Licensing Costs – Previously, organizations that had internal web apps needed to run those on Windows servers, which required Microsoft licenses and RDS CALs, dramatically increasing the cost of delivering those apps. Cameyo for Linux enables organizations to deliver all of their apps that don’t require a Windows server via Linux, eliminating the cost of Microsoft licenses. 
    • Windows Server Costs – The hourly rate of Linux servers is 50% less than that of Windows servers, so beyond the up front licensing cost savings, Cameyo for Linux provides ongoing cost reductions for Cloud Desktops. 
  • Deliver a Seamless User Experience for All Apps – Cameyo’s support of all applications – Windows, SaaS, internal web apps, and now Linux – provides a completely seamless Cloud Desktop experience for the end user. Cameyo for Linux enables IT admins to easily publish Linux apps as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) just as they can with Windows apps. Regardless of the type of application or which type of server it’s running on, users simply access and use their apps as they normally would, with nothing new to learn. 
• Future Proofing – Cameyo has always helped organizations deliver their legacy applications to any device via the browser or PWAs, helping bring their legacy apps into the future. With Cameyo for Linux, Cameyo also helps ensure that all future apps – including web apps that don’t require a Windows server – can also be efficiently and cost-effectively delivered to any device from the same platform.  

Even Greater Protection Against Vendor Lock-In

Cameyo is the only virtualization solution that enables organizations to deliver all of their apps – including Windows apps – without delivering the full Windows desktop. This provides organizations of all sizes with a Windows OS-independent Cloud Desktop, which gives them the freedom to adopt any device, OS, and cloud they want without fear of being locked into the Microsoft environment. Cameyo also recently received its second issued patent for its Temporary User Profiles technology, which make it easier for enterprises to move to the cloud by eliminating the on-premises components that make legacy virtualization solutions so costly and complex – including Active Directory, roaming users profiles, network drive mapping, VPNs, and more. 

Cameyo for Linux is the latest Cameyo innovation focused on providing organizations with the freedom and flexibility they need to provide their people with secure productivity from anywhere and any device without being locked into one vendor’s ecosystem. 

“Every organization is working hard to ensure their people have access to all of the critical tools they need to do their jobs from anywhere. But especially in this economic climate, most organizations are trying to balance that anytime, anywhere access with the need to reduce costs,” said Eyal Dotan, Founder and CTO of Cameyo. “With the addition of Linux support, Cameyo is enabling organizations to give their people a seamless, secure experience for all of their apps – both past, present, and future – from a single platform.”

Cameyo for Linux is available today worldwide. To see how much delivering apps via Cameyo for Linux can save your organization compared to traditional virtual desktops and Windows servers, schedule a demo here.
