The Citrix Ready Program is a technology partner program that helps software and hardware vendors of all types develop and integrate their products with Citrix technology for Digital Workspace, Networking, and Analytics. To become a partner and earn the Citrix Ready designation, companies validate their solutions through a robust testing and verification process that ensures compatibility with Citrix solutions. Technical specialists are available to assist with the integration and testing phases on the way to Citrix Ready verification. Partners can then participate in joint marketing activities to drive awareness and generate demand for their solutions. Partner solutions are listed in the Citrix Ready Marketplace, an on-line resource that customers can use to easily search and find compatible solutions for their Citrix deployments or environment.

What are Citrix Cloud services? How does the Citrix Ready CSP Program help partners to verify their Citrix Cloud services offerings as Citrix Ready?
Citrix Cloud services unites all of Citrix’s leading technologies and services into a single management and delivery platform. Citrix Cloud services simplify the delivery and management of Citrix technologies extending existing on-premises software deployments and creating a hybrid workspace service. It also helps partners to simplify the configuration and management tasks that they traditionally performed manually. The management platform primarily helps in administration, authentication, service provisioning, licensing and license management, and service monitoring and reporting.
The Citrix Ready CSP Program provides the best practices in the form of test cases allowing partners to build the infrastructure, verify and share the results for validation, which will eventually help CSP partners to build a best-in-class Citrix Cloud infrastructure. It also provides steps so partners can leverage a true hybrid cloud experience where they can utilize their existing infrastructure along with a public cloud.
-
What is the verification process? How long does it take?
Partner verifications are managed through the Citrix Ready Verification Platform (CRVP), our online platform for verification and partner profile management. The CRVP contains the instructions, prerequisites and test scenarios that are required to pass the verifications. Marketplace helps to display the approved offerings. It is recommended that partners complete as many verifications as they have in order to build a stronger profile, so we can promote all the solution offerings that are Citrix Ready.
They typical turn-around for reviewing a verification and validation is 2-3 business days.
-
How are Citrix Cloud services verification methodology different from Citrix on-prem Product verification?
There is no difference in the verification methodology as the verifications are carried out through the Citrix Ready Verification Platform. However, technically the infrastructure requirement and the test cases that are required to pass are different for both the product types. We have separate test kits for each independent product type and for Citrix Cloud services. One has to run through these test kits separately in order to get the compatibility of each product type and Citrix Cloud services.
