Vendorwag with Centrix - Rob Tribe [Episode 30]

Date: Oct 12, 2010

This weeks vendorwag is with Centrix, and their representative Rob Tribe…. If you live in the UK you might remember Rob from his VMware days. Centrix has a number of solutions – but basically they are in the application discovery/auditing space – and allow you to find your apps in your environment – and will assist you in your VDI planning & deployment – they also have a product called Centrix Universal which is portal/application aggregator – it’s like VMware’s much wanted Project Horizon.

If you are at Copenhagen/VMworld 2010 – then you can find Centrix at booth 101. That’s just opposite the big CA stand – in the New Innovators zone.
