The Citrix CEO Mark Templeton has announced that they will end sales on VDI-in-a-Box. This decision is part of a series of actions that the company is performing in order to reduce the number of products in its portfolio and give greater weight to the ones that generate higher benefits.

Templeton said that this desktop virtualization solution “will be replaced by a more simple one which will have a more competitive price”, but he hasn’t given any detail in this regard so far.

UDS Enterprise 1.7 incorporates an on-screen keyboard when accessing to our virtual desktop using any mobile OS, thanks to the incorporation of Guacamole’s latest enhancements.

This new feature allows you to enable a virtual keyboard using a simple gesture on mobile devices, which will facilitate to a great extent the management of virtual desktops from this type of devices.

The incorporation of this keyboard joins the list of new features included in the next version of UDS Enterprise, which will be released at the end of Q1 of this year 2015.
