Re: New to TS 2003 - Application launching

Citrix will cost you at least US$ 250 per user. So for 20-30 users expect
anything over US$ 5,000.00 to US$ 7,500.00.
If you do have the requirement to support all kinds of plataforms you will
have to open your wallet.
So far the only options are Citrix ($$$) or using TS with a Java based
client (http://www.hobsoft.com - $$$).
If you would be happy having a solution for Windows clients only take a look
at our WTSPortal software. US$ 349.00 per server, no matter how many users
you have.
