We performed a comparison between Citrix DaaS (formerly Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service) and LogMeIn Central based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Citrix, Microsoft, VMware and others in Application Virtualization."Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops is a stable solution."
"The product is stable."
"The initial setup is easy."
"We've been able to scale the environment quite nicely by using the Citrix Remote PC. I can't say enough about that. And because that relies on utilizing your existing hardware resources, and making those available as a part of your Citrix farm — with a second level of authentication and security pieces around it — we added some 4,000 workstations without an additional overhead or cost."
"Citrix is used by many organizations to make it possible to streamline the way different developers work together from different locations."
"Instead of pointing to any single feature, I would say the most valuable aspect of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops is the overall product itself. Virtualized apps and desktops, in theory and in practice, are very helpful to users."
"The scalability is fine. We have about 400 users, who are supported by six staff members. We use the product company-wide throughout 40 different locations, and we currently do not have plans to increase the scale of use."
"The shadow feature is extraordinary and helps a lot when supporting remote users."

"This solution has allowed granular permission access to machines, very consistent and solid most of the time."
"It is convenient for my workers to be at home. Therefore, it is easier for them as their second job to do the work. That is a plus, and I improve productivity."
"I would not want to tell other companies about it because it is so powerful, it does so much, and it makes me look so good."
"I have called for help to their technical support, and they have been extremely helpful."
"For me, it's convenience because I cover three different offices, and I need to be able to remotely access any of those three offices from anywhere, anytime. With LogMeIn Central, I can do that."
"Provides remote access, allows me to get inside our network to be able to fix problems."
"I like the security aspect, that I can glance down and see quickly who's up to date on patches, and who has virus concerns."
"The initial setup was simple."
"The only thing we have found to be detrimental is when we have tried to find training. I realize that we're looking at it at the worst time possible, with a pandemic going on, but it seems that most of the training offered is learn-by-yourself online."
"If Citrix can develop something which can have more reach towards the backend infrastructure, other components of the Citrix environment, that would be ideal."
"Direct connection of USB devices on the terminals to be used by streamed applications is very important for printing and the usage of token authentication, but the current version does not support this one hundred percent."
"The sales team does not focus on client needs but instead focuses on selling higher-priced items."
"Citrix has to support all of the hypervisors including KVM and OpenStack KVM."
"Tech support can be slow if you do not receive help from the US representatives."
"Dependency on server virtualization after v7.x is an issue which I encountered in small environments."
"Citrix should consolidate the multiple tools currently required into a single platform."

"The file transfer could be better. They could make it a lot easier to deal with. LogMeIn Central is not that intuitive. It's a lot harder to figure out."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve. It has been a major issue there. Otherwise, we're happy. We haven't moved away from them because we haven't found anybody with comparable pricing for our business model."
"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"I do not like the antivirus."
"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
