"Before we found 2X ApplicationServer, we drove to each of our locations to manually update our software. With 2X's ApplicationServer & Terminal Services we were able to deploy an all-inclusive database solution to all of our Clubs that integrated with their current systems. The seamless integration allowed us to make the switch from running the application at each workstation to the terminal server without training staff. The transition was quick and easy. Now updates take 5 minutes, instead of days. Not only did 2X's software cut down on our maintenance cost and time, they are also competitively priced - definitely less expensive and less complex to install and administer than Citrix! We look forward to a long relationship with 2X."

"We are an application and network consulting firm. Up until we started to demo 2X ApplicationServer we had been running Citrix Metaframe enterprise-wide. We started looking for a more cost effective solution to Citrix while still providing the quality of service our customers expect. After testing different "Citrix alternative's" from various companies it soon became apparent that 2X was a step above the rest. We are now in the process of migrating customers off of Citrix and implementing 2X ApplicationServer in its place.
The quality of 2X's support personnel is outstanding. Fast response time and the issues were resolved in a very timely manner with constant communication throughout the process. I am very impressed with 2X and look forward to doing a lot of buisness with this company now and in the future."

"We needed a solution to publish Windows Apps and Desktops to our employees, simple and cost efficient. We already owned licenses for windows 2003 enterprise Terminal server, so why pay for expensive solutions? We found that the 2x server where able, to deliver all the missing features and that with great stability and extremely easy handling. Application publishing has never been easier. "

We were using an old version of Citrix Presentation Server to provide off campus access to a few key resources. Our budget is pretty tight and when we got an upgrade quote from Citrix it was clear we needed to look at alternatives. Luckily, we ran across 2x's Load Balancer & Application Server solution which promised even more functionality at less than 1/8th the cost per user.This seemed entirely too good to be true but our testing with the free trial confirmed everything so we went forward and have been very pleased. We're using it not only to replace the off campus functions our Citrix server provided but to securely, and transparently to the user, provide access to our ERP system. The overhead of the 2x ApplicationServer was low enough that we were able to build our farm with several older, underpowered servers. Load balancing and fail over work seamlessly.We would highly recommend 2x to anyone looking for a reliable load balancing app server system. Its low upfront and maintenance costs, both in terms of time and money, make it a great choice.

The one issue we had which was due to a bug in our own software was corrected by a work-around patch that the 2X developers created for us. Try getting that kind of direct personal support from Citrix! We have since started using 2X to publish other applications and look forward to using the load balancing features as well.

We worked closely with John at 2x to come up with a plan to replace Citrix and to deploy 2x Application Server and 2x Application clients within our Company.  I was amazed on how the process was simple and easy to deploy, I had all 120 workstation installed in less than 1 hour using Active Directory and Opra to modify the msi file....Read more
