Citrix Workspace (formerly Citrix Workspace Suite) is a digital workspace software platform developed by Citrix Systems. Launched in 2018, it is Citrix Systems' flagship product.[1][2] Citrix Workspace is an information retrieval service where users can access programs and files from a variety of sources through a central application or a Web browser.[3][4] In addition to Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops (formerly XenApp and XenDesktop), Citrix Workspace services include Citrix Endpoint Management (formerly XenMobile), Citrix Content Collaboration (formerly ShareFile),[5] Citrix Access Control,[6] microapp capabilities,[1] usage analytics, and single sign-on capabilities to SaaS and Web apps.[7]

Its central application, Citrix Workspace app (formerly Citrix Receiver), is client software that allows access to all of a user's files and apps from one interface. This includes mobile files and desktops, in addition to SaaS and virtual apps.[8]

Citrix Workspace app replaced Citrix Receiver, which was the client component of Citrix products XenDesktop and XenApp, now Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops.[9] It was released initially in 2009; devices with Receiver installed were able to access full desktops via XenDesktop or individual applications via XenApp from a centralized host, such as a server or cloud infrastructure.[10] The product's intended users were employees of businesses and organizations.[11]
