Case Study: City of Corona achieves stronger business continuity and disaster recovery with Citrix Workspace

In the face of natural disasters, the city of Corona builds business continuity with Citrix

The City of Corona, a California municipality of about 165,000 people located near active fault lines and wildfire-prone areas, needed a reliable way for staff to access systems and data during evacuations and other emergencies. With a small IT team and a goal to become more data-driven, the city adopted a cloud-first strategy to strengthen disaster recovery and ensure employees could work from anywhere.

By deploying Citrix Workspace alongside Microsoft Azure and Office 365, Corona established a scalable, resilient platform that improved business continuity, enabled seamless remote access during crises, and simplified cross-department collaboration. The rollout reduced the IT team’s operational burden, shifted them from reactive support to business enablement, and delivered measurable gains in agility and service delivery potential for citizens.
