Awingu Adds Advanced Citrix Workspace Deployment, Skype for Business Integration, and Compliance Enhancing to its Browser-Based Workspace

The newest release allows users to deploy the unified, browser-based workspace on legacy Citrix environments


NEW YORK and GHENT, Belgium, Oct. 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Awingu (www.awingu.com), the unified, browser-based workspace, today announced enhanced workspace deployment on top of existing Citrix XenApp or XenDesktop environments by building on the common Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) layer, a Skype for Business integration, and enhanced security and compliance.

The new release allows customers running on both older and newer versions of XenApp or XenDesktop to quickly and easily access desktops using Awingu’s browser-based workspace. Awingu empowers users to work and collaborate from virtually anywhere using any HTML5 browser-capable device.

“Our focus is on helping every organization seamlessly deliver everything they need to stay productive — from legacy and cloud apps to documents, data,” said Walter Van Uytven, CEO of Awingu. “We are thrilled to expand our unified workspace capabilities to users running on all versions of Citrix. We have created a number of blueprints that are simple and easy to deploy, regardless of which version of Citrix you are running.”

The update also introduces a new Skype for Business Integration that enables users to take Awingu’s session and file sharing capability one step further, and share links immediately to contacts on Skype for Business or via Awingu’s existing URL copy.

In addition, Awingu has added enhanced security and compliance features that enable users to launch a 30-day browser trust for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Awingu already offered a built-in “one-time password” solution as well as numerous integrations with commercial MFA packages such as Azure MFA and Duo Security.

“We really want to stimulate businesses to adopt MFA. By introducing our optional ‘30-day browser trust’ we want to further encourage adoption,” added Walter Van Uytven.

As a turnkey, cloud-based solution, Awingu brings the ease and convenience of platform agnostic mobility to the enterprise, and delivers everything you need — legacy and cloud apps, documents, and data — to stay productive. It requires zero configuration and zero client software installation, making IT administration a breeze.
