We get it. You’ve been heads-down, holding down the IT fort over this past year making sure all the newly remote workers can access their apps and desktops. Maybe you’ve been managing Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops for years (in fact, you might know it by its old name “XenApp”). And then somebody up the chain upgrades your subscription to Citrix Workspace Premium Plus.  

So, now you’re probably left wondering just what is that, and, more importantly, what do you do with it? 

First the good news.
