Citrix Systems Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for 2008 Application Delivery Controller Magic Quadrant

SANTA CLARA, CA – Citrix Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTXS), the global leader in application delivery infrastructure, today announced that Citrix® NetScaler®, a key member of the Citrix Delivery Center™ product family, has been evaluated and positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the leaders quadrant in the 2008 Application Delivery Controller Magic Quadrant’ report authored by Mark Fabbi, Gartner VP Distinguished Analyst, and Joe Skorupa, Research VP. Gartner defines a vendor in the Leaders Quadrant as one who has “exhibited an ability to shape the market by introducing additional capabilities in its product offering and by raising the awareness of the importance of these features. Key capabilities for a leader revolve around the AP ADC capabilities that focus on enterprise application capabilities. [Gartner] expects a leader to have strong or growing market share, especially in the AP ADCs, and to have solutions that resonate with an increasing number of enterprises. Expertise in complex data center application deployment is also a necessity to be a leader in the Magic Quadrant for Application Delivery.”

Citrix NetScaler accelerates application performance up to five times while ensuring compliance and reducing datacenter server infrastructure costs. In addition to delivering enterprise web applications for thousands of corporate customers, NetScaler is also the delivery infrastructure of choice for most of the world’s largest consumer websites, touching an estimated 75 percent of all Internet users each day.

“With organizations of all sizes increasingly reliant upon web applications to run their business, fast, dependable and secure delivery of these applications is more important than ever,” said Klaus Oestermann, group vice president and general manager, Application Networking Group at Citrix. “Citrix continues to invest aggressively in our leading NetScaler product line to meet the requirements of our enterprise and Internet customers. We are honored that Citrix was placed in the Gartner Magic Quadrant.”
