Annual Savings of $4.5 Million

After developing a new reservations system,

Spirit Airlines, the largest privately held carrier in the US, needed a cost-effective way to deploy it to 800 reservations and gate agents at 16 airport sites. To support the airline’s time-sensitive operations, the deployment solution had to provide continuous, secure access on a variety of devices.

Spirit chose Citrix Presentation Server running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 to deploy the new system and has gained significant benefits. By hosting the system in-house instead of contracting for a reservations solution, Spirit saves $4.5 million annually, strengthening its competitive position as a low-cost carrier. On-demand access helps improve customer response time, and the scalable Citrix infrastructure supports Spirit’s rapid expansion and makes it easy to add agents during peak periods.

Virtualized Application Delivery: Consolidation, Efficiency, and Security

For client/server and desktop-based applications, virtualized delivery eliminates the complexities of deploying, managing, updating and securing a vast array of heterogeneous clients on each individual user’s access device. Instead, you simply install a single instance of the application on Citrix Presentation Server within the secure confines of the datacenter. The application is then “virtually” delivered to local, remote and mobile users by passing only screen pixels, keystrokes and mouse movements over the network — no need to push actual data or software. To your users, this process is transparent, providing the same experience as if the application were local. Meanwhile, IT administrators benefit from a far more cost-effective, easy-to-manage and secure method for managing business applications.

Citrix Presentation Server supports custom and commercially packaged Windows, ®

UNIX, ® Java ™ and Web applications and makes them securely accessible from any network or device.

Tens of thousands of organizations worldwide have standardized on Presentation Server and improved their ability to leverage IT to drive the success of their businesses.

Virtualized application delivery means you can deploy line of business applications — including mission-critical ERP, CRM, SFA, and office automation solutions — far more quickly than if you installed them locally. Running these enterprise applications (and their clients) entirely in the datacenter also typically improves the performance. You save resources while significantly reducing deployment costs, and users get the latest versions right away.

Because applications and data reside on the server instead of the desktop, Citrix

Presentation Server minimizes the risks of theft or loss. End-users can only access applications and information they are authorized to use. All information transmitted across the network to the end-user is protected with 128-bit encryption. Centralized control of applications ensures consistency across the organization and prevents installation of unauthorized programs. All these measures aid in bolstering security and enabling regulatory compliance.
