Virtualization of apps - any solutions?

Featured Replies

Hi there,

 

is there any way that unRAID is capable of providing apps like e.g. Citrix does?

 

I know that I can use a VNC client to use a unRaid app (docker) remotely on a client without the hassle of using a browser, but for anyone who ever uses Citrix, VNC is amateur class while Citrix is master class :)

 

In general VNC is a solution as well but while I'm using VNC to use "Ferdi-Docker" on my MacMini I see a lot of disadvantages.

  1. Menubar of the VNC client itself - if Citrix publish an app you couldn't see any visual difference from running the same app natively or via citrix. It looks and feels like you installed it right on your client. 
  2. Menu / Icons on the client system. If you use VNC, the icon is - obviously - always VNC. If there is a native way for virtualize apps like citrix, the app got the same Icon on the client as you expected when running the app natively. 
  3. No "nice/easy way" to start a VNC app on client startup. Maybe via script - but thats not nice/easy.
    If you look at Citrix for reference you can easily start apps on startup of your client because they all behave like they where installed locally. 
  4. No glitches or any other visual "misbehaviors" when using the app

 

Please recognize Citrix only for reference for features I like to have. 

Is there any way to achieve this goal via unRaid without paying thousands of €/$ to Citrix? It's not economical to buy a "business app" for a single user solution... mostly due to the lack of money 🙈🤣

 

Thanks for any hints or solutions. Have a nice weekend and stay healthy.
