#CITRIX XENAPP 6.5 COMPATIBILITY MATRIX UPGRADE#
Citrix has released its forward schedule for its product upgrade cycles, with four updates a year covering its two release programs. If you have missed one or more of the upgrade cycles on your core application delivery platform, the risk increases exponentially. Enterprises are continually beset with a spectrum of application support and compatibility challenges due to lackluster upgrade programs, however missing these cycles can introduce significant business risk. Sometimes it’s simply resourcing the work, sometimes the business doesn’t see the value and sometimes it’s just too big a risk to the user base. We’re all guilty of missing an application upgrade cycle.
