>Citrix/RDP farm should NEVER be used for cost savings. It is for data control. But bean counters think it saves costs

Except ... it does "save costs"

Allowing BYOD (or eve just supplying a 'basic' device) and connecting only through Horizon (or whatever client of choice you prefer) is a huge savings over managing fleets of laptops, desktops, etc - all with different support cycles, specs, etc

All your management is focused on just one layer - the virtual desktop (and its supporting infrastructure)

Everything else is noise
