The LTSR Process
An LTSR release comes along once every few years. The Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops LTSR track is targeted at customers with production environments who prefer to stay on the same version of the product for an extended period of time. The LTSR program offers up to 10 years of support, so administrators have plenty of time to plan, test, and deploy their environments. I discussed the benefits and deployment options in more detail in our LTSR prep blog.
Of course, if you are a CR customer, 1912 is still an important update for you; it’s the natural successor to Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 1909 in our CR cadence. Citrix have dozens of new features and improvements bundled in to keep your environments up to date!
