Citrix XenApp Monitoring & Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting End User Experience Issues
Goliath Performance Monitor provides broad and deep visibility that allows you to troubleshoot Citrix XenApp with the most comprehensive performance data available. Now, support teams and administrators can quickly identify exactly where in the delivery infrastructure a problem is occurring and what specific factors are contributing to the issue. This means specific root cause is identified more quickly and problems are resolved with minimal impact on end users. Our tools troubleshoot end user issues in many areas, but we find 95% of issues are found in three areas: session initiation, logon duration, and session performance. Goliath is built to proactively anticipate, troubleshoot and prevent the issues. This real-time Citrix XenApp monitor will allow you to see all 33 stages of logon process, all HDX channels and individual session performance metrics. Armed with this data you can troubleshoot & resolve issues such as:
- Citrix XenApp Session Slowness
- Citrix XenApp Printing & Profile Issues
- Citrix XenApp Session Hangs
- Citrix XenApp Slow Logons
- Application Latency & Crashes
- Random but Persistent Performance Issues
