Citrix influence on Microsoft Account Revenue
  • Every MetaFrame XP sale is a Microsoft sale
    (Windows 2000 Servers, SQL Server, and TS CALs
    )!
  • Incremental revenue and increased market share
    for Microsoft products
  • Increase adoption of Windows 2000 when Server
    Based Computing is implemented
  • Example
  • when a Customer buys Exchange they may get 5 or 6
    Exchange servers (a 500 user organisation).
  • If that same customer decided to go with
    server-based computing, then they would need
    another 10 Windows 2000 servers (based on 50
    users/server - 2000 users 40/50 servers etc).

Citrix MetaFrame expands the markets for Windows
products
  • Populate Microsoft applications throughout the
    enterprise
  • VB, Access SQL applications run on more
    devices
  • Accelerate upgrades of Microsoft Office XP by
    removing device dependencies
  • Smooth adoption of current applications in mixed
    environments
  • Accounts where NetWare OS is embedded
  • Creates an entry point into UNIX accounts by
    allowing multi-user character apps to become
    multi-user Windows apps
  • Extends Windows 2000 to Macintosh and JAVA
    devices

10
MetaFrame expands the markets for the Windows
Platform
  • Citrix web technologies start the migration to
    .NET
