Case Study: EDF Energy achieves personalized Citrix user environments and 20% improved server efficiency with Ivanti

EDF Energy Personalizes Its User Environment with Ivanti

EDF Energy, the UK’s largest low‑carbon electricity producer, needed secure remote access for staff but was constrained by strict OCNS legislation. After adopting Citrix to meet accreditation, the company faced corrupted roaming profiles, identical (non‑personalized) sessions, and a few resource‑hungry applications that slowed logons and reduced server capacity — so EDF Energy turned to Ivanti for a targeted solution.

Ivanti implemented Environment Manager to stream personalized user settings and Performance Manager to detect and cap resource‑intensive applications, optimizing server use. Ivanti’s approach shortened logon and app response times, enabled full Citrix adoption, and delivered about a 20% improvement in application profile performance and server efficiency (increasing users per Citrix server from five to six).
