Increase overall account penetration in installed base XenDesktop can be the lever to expand the footprint when XenApp has hit a plateau Many customers seeking VDI, but don't know why Curious about the hype, but need help with direction Extremely competitive marketplace Use everything you have to beat the competition – XenApp and XenDesktop Offer more tools in the toolbelt – customers need the flexibility and choice Converting XD opportunity to XA sale is okay!

  22. Step 1: Differentiate App vs. Desktop Challenges Application Delivery Desktop Replacement • Example: • Full desktops for physicians with their own PCs • Windows updates, patches and refresh • TCO of entire desktop • New desktop deployment • PC refresh or migration • Remote access for entire desktop • Extend client hardware lifecycle • Examples: • EMR implementation across a healthcare network • SAP updates for everyone • Application management challenges • Application performance • Frequent application updates • Legacy applications • Application conflicts • Remote access for specific applications Try to expand to XD Up sell XA for app delivery
