We have more good news to share–only a few weeks after our own community survey delivered us important and very positive feedback. (See Tobias Kreidl’s great summary here.)
Now we’ve learned of a second survey of IT professionals with additional good news for CUGC and the entire Citrix Community.
The team at VDI Like A Pro released the results of their 2019 ‘End User Computing – State of the Union’ survey.
In the survey, they asked respondents, “Which EUC events, conferences and tradeshows do you visit?” Their results were:
More over, the team at VDI Like A Pro calculated the results when independent Citrix user groups like the DuCUG and CUGC are combined and counted as single Citrix user group, and they found this result:

The credit goes to all of the community volunteers that lead groups, to the CTPs, CTAs and WIT participants, to every meeting and webinar presenter and moderator, and every member that has contributed at a meeting, with a blog, or forum post.
