Citrix Workspace Raspberry Pi



I've recently tried to run Citrix Workspace on the Pi with poor results.
1) The chromium app: works on Pi 2 and Pi 3, but it is too slow. Impossible to use on Pi 2, but still too slow on a Pi 3 b+. Connection always happens correctly.

Citrix Workspace App is the client component of Citrix Workspace. It enables access to a full desktop on a remote host and is available for many different platforms. A colleague recently mentioned it could be installed on a Raspberry. So I have not hesitated and ordered a Raspberry Pi 4 to setup a thin-client for work from home. Raspberry Pi (Citrix Ready Workspace Hub) Citrix Ready Workspace Hub is a Raspberry Pi-based thin client with enterprise-grade performance, security, and manageability. Use Citrix Endpoint Management to keep your Workspace Hub devices updated with the latest features and security patches, plus perform security actions like full wipes or restarts. As a component of the Citrix Workspace experience, Citrix Ready workspace hub is built on the Raspberry Pi 3 platform and becomes a robust service delivered through Citrix Cloud. At the same time, a secure connection establishes to authorized apps and data. The complete package is an off-the-shelf. The RX420(IGEL) enterprise thin client, powered by IGEL OS on the latest Raspberry Pi4 platform, brings premium performance and native dual display support to the Citrix Ready Workspace Hub family. It is optimized for Citrix HDX which makes certain that it meets the performance, security and manageability demands of the enterprise. The Citrix Workspace Hub, built on the Raspberry Pi3 and powered by NoTouch OS, antiquates Desktop PCs and desk phones and supports Citrix Casting and Session Roaming. Take advantage of Citrix Casting/Wireless Docking capabilities with Mac, iOS, and Android to seamlessly roam Citrix sessions from a tablet or mobile device to any workspace station.

Downloads2) Installed Citrix Receiver (wfica) on Pi 2 and 3 in Raspbian 9. It either fails to connect or when it connects it looks like it has massive rendering issues. It seems to work for a few seconds then it kind of stop completely.
Other times it just returns 'Unknown error' cannot connect.
I feel the native app would perform much better, but it is riddled with issues.
Is anybody able to run the Workspace app in Raspbian?
Cheers

“Citrix is pleased to be expanding on our long-term partnership with ViewSonic with the launch of the first official Citrix workspace hub,” said Chris Fleck, VP & Technology Fellow at Citrix. “ViewSonic’s SC-T25 (formerly HDX Pi) is the first Citrix Ready workspace hub device to support all the latest workspace hub technologies, including beacon based session roaming, QR code login, and Citrix Casting. In the coming months Citrix will work closely with ViewSonic to enable full device management capabilities of the Citrix Ready workspace hub under the Citrix XenMobile MDM platform. This new purpose built solution will deliver virtual workspaces with better security, reliability, ease-of-use, and lowest possible TCO to vertical markets.”

Having partnered with industry leaders like the Raspberry Pi Foundation and Citrix Systems, Inc, ViewSonic is able to deliver a powerful thin client with an extremely attractive price point. Even more, last year ViewSonic announced a partnership with Stratodesk to bring a host of additional features, including NoTouch® OS and Center management software which allows for simple provisioning and updating across networks.

With a slim and compact design and optional mounting plate, the ViewSonic SC-T25 easily attaches to a VESA-compatible monitor. With an eco-friendly design, the SC-T25 consumes less than 5W of power and uses up to 90 percent less energy than standard PCs. The SC-T25 is the smart choice for organizations looking to future-proof their virtual workspace.

The Citrix Ready workspace hub is a fully assembled thin client that includes everything you need in a single, orderable package.
