WHITEPAPER – CITRIX USER PROFILE MANAGER

Author: Nicholas Dille (sepago GmbH), http://blogs.sepago.de

As application delivery scenarios grow increasingly complex, user profile management becomes even more of an issue than in times of server-based computing. There is a whole market focusing on managing a user’s environment. One aspect of these efforts is to handle a user’s personal settings which Citrix User Profile Manager solely concentrates on.
Unfortunately, there are still folks thinking that the traditional methods suffice to solve the issues which are caused by the limitations of Windows user profiles. Due to this, I initiated the writing of this whitepaper to cover in depth the subject of user profiles and to reveal the pitfalls encountered in traditional handling of profiles.
