It's funny--I had just seen a reference to your broker comparison pass through my RSS reader, and then this comment appears! I'll definitely have a look, and if there is any useful information I can share I'll be happy to do so. Thanks for reading and commenting! Patrick,

I don't have details on Leostream, but perhaps someone can look at my document and provide me with the details to expand it to cover Leostream, Ericom... The document is located on this blog post, and will be continually updated as we receive feedback from the vendors and community: http://blogs.inside.quest.com/provision/2008/05/24/virtual-desktop-infrastructure-vdi-connection-broker-comparison/ Scott, we’ve created a connection broker comparison document to commpare/contrast the features and pricing of VMware VDM2, Citrix XenDesktop and Quest Software’s Provision Networks Virtual Access Suite.

I saw it when looking at their website for Terminal Server stuff. Here's the page to their VDI product (http://www.ericom.com/virtual_desktops.asp) Hey all,

They have a pretty cool approach to managing an enterprise desktop infrastructure consisting of VMs (vdi), terminal servers and blade PCs. I've found it to be very intuitive.

It's heritage is a Citrix Metaframe / Secure Gateway style product, which they seem keen to move away from. Clever guys, but look elsewhere. I agree the Propero product is too complicated.

Unfortunately, at last check, the Citrix CB only supported Windows XP hosted desktops, which puts it a bit behind some of the other CBs that are available on the market currently. Jared,

The cool think is that it integrates with Web Interface so you can have your published apps next to your hosted desktops(physical or virtual). Citrix Also has a CB.
