Yep . I agree blue jeans apps is pure trash. We have it and I always get "when u going to get blues working right in Citrix" the vendor refuses to help.
I tried to screensharing today, it was really choppy.
Nick, I'm curious on ur progress on this bud.
n
I had to step back from testing this temporarily, but my next steps were going to be using RDAnalyzer to mess around with a/v settings within the session to see if it helps. Given that I saw the same issues using this on physical devices, I'm not terribly hopeful.
m
I’ve got a client with it and the last I heard from the vendor was that it wasn’t supported at all if installed on a machine that also had a VDA installed. Have they changed their tune?
n
I've asked BlueJeans this, and was told that I should reference this article: https://support.bluejeans.com/s/article/BlueJeans-App-2-x-Centralized-Deployment
They couldn't clarify further, so it seems like BlueJeans Desktop is supported in Citrix. And now that I write that, I realize that I never mentioned the Desktop bit before. The back end software is definitely not supported in Citrix.
r
Dang. They told me no. Well I'm glad for this app.
n
Well, I have no idea how much the person I'm asking knows, so I could be getting bad information...
m
Environment: Remote Desktop (RDS), Server-based Operating Systems and Virtual Environments like Citrix XenApp and VMware are NOT supported. https://support.bluejeans.com/s/article/BlueJeans-System-Requirements
n
Yeah, and that article contradicts the other one.
m
Is this desktop vda though? Maybe it’s different for both
n
Desktop VDA, yes. Could be, but they don't explicitly call it out.
m
One talks about server and the other desktop so I guess it’s supported on desktop and not server. I never made the distinction before now though
n
That's what I'm trying to confirm right now. They said XenDesktop was supported (or rather, linked me to that article), but when I mentioned "Desktop VDA" in the next sentence, they said they had to research that. So...
m
Let us know what you find out, I ended up uninstalling it for our client.
n
Will do. I'd be okay with them saying it's not, because I don't want this trash installed in XD, personally. 🙂
m
Ha, that’s the stance I took too 😂
r
The one Nick sent says terminal servers
It is trash
n
I've been on hold for 43 minutes since asking about Desktop VDAs, lol.
r
I'm on chat now asking as well. They have no idea. I told them to please create a ticket to get my answers
n
Same here (chat). Any chance you're chatting with Melissa A.?
r
Michelle D.
n
Damn, that would have been funny.
r
Passing me to the technical support engineer now.
Well. They are supposed to call me back
n
@Ray Davis: Did BlueJeans ever get back to you? The support rep who responded to my ticket informed me that BlueJeans was not supported in Citrix at all - XD or XA.
r
They have not and it's the second time they have don't this. Terrible software company
Done*
