Pros
"Citrix Hypervisor is simple to use.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is very fast.

It's very easy to manage the virtual machine, to create, and configure high availability.""The compatibility of the solution is its most valuable feature. It's compatible on almost every cloud these days.""The support for this solution is phenomenal.""The solution is extremely stable.""Citrix is easy to use and is stable."

Cons
"The interface has to be updated.""The product could be faster and licensing options could be improved.""We'd like them to add more automation to the product.""I find that the features in Citrix Hypervisor are not as rich as with VMware. It would be a benefit if they had some of the other features VMware has, such as the ability to expand a drive on the fly. You do not have to take down the machine to do it but in Citrix you do.""Assigning the order of virtual server startup is not very easy and this can be improved.""The solution needs better backup facilities that are available for virtual machines to create servers on.""Live migration is something that can be improved.""Overall, I can't think of a feature that is lacking. We've been pretty satisfied overall."
