The way people work is changing. To meet the needs and expectations of an increasingly flexible workforce, IT has to provide fast, reliable, and secure access to the resources employees need to get things done, whether they are working at home, in the office, on the road or anywhere in between.

The company announced that Citrix Desktop as a Service (DaaS) is now available in Azure Marketplace, making it easier than ever for companies to purchase the market-leading solution and use it to quickly stand up the secure, high-performing workspaces that distributed workers demand.
