Citrix Addresses Business Continuity for Keeping Employees Connected and Productive During Disruptions

Business Wire, May 23, 2006

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. -- "Business Continuity - Managing Through a Workforce Disruption" Webinar on May 24 Will Address Citrix's Innovative "Insurance" for Office PC Access

A new and cost-effective remote access solution for maintaining business continuity during a workplace disruption is the topic of a May 24 webinar sponsored by the Citrix Online Division of Citrix Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:CTXS), the global leader in access infrastructure solutions.

The next best thing to business as usual

An innovative technology twist from Citrix now gives companies of all sizes a business productivity "insurance plan" in the event of a crisis. This use-only-when-needed service provides Web-based access to office PCs from anywhere, giving businesses an always ready contingency plan that can be activated at the company's discretion when employees cannot safely get to the office.

PCMagCast hosts this online technology event for both small-medium businesses, hosted by Editor-at-Large David Coursey with remarks by Brian Donahoo, Citrix Online vice president, products and services.
