Accelerate IT modernization to enable business growth and innovation
True digitization remains a challenge for an industry that has long relied on paper-based processes and legacy systems leading to an IT landscape more disparate and more complex than many other industries. Though implementing modern IT technology may be expensive upfront, the long term benefits lead to improved operational efficiency and business efficiency.
With a digital-first approach, manufacturers can:
- Simplify the IT landscape: Centralize and streamline IT operations and infrastructure, by replacing legacy systems with cloud-based solutions, and consolidating or centralizing on-premises data centers.
- Modernize applications: Proactively monitor and manage software lifecycles of traditional applications by deploying Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) like application management. In this use case, Citrix reduced app deployment for a manufacturing customer from 40 days to 4 days, compared to their traditional endpoint rollout approach.
- Ensure business continuity: Reduce downtime, increase resilience, and alleviate the many challenges associated with traditional desktop management via Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS).
- Support employee mobility: Citrix ensures that employees can access essential applications securely from any location within the facility, optimizing operational efficiency
