Microsoft VDI + Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 - VDI Softphone
Wednesday, 12 August 2009 by Michel Roth
I have heard via the grapevine that there are quite a few people out there saying that using softphones with VDI isn’t possible. Well it definitely is, and if you don’t believe me please feel free to come and see the demo yourself!
The Citrix partner that set up this demo environment is also a Microsoft Gold Partner. The approach was to set up the whole Microsoft Enterprise VDI solution; Hyper-V, App-V, Citrix Provisioning Server, and Citrix XenDesktop.
All you need is a headset and a microphone and you can use the Office Communicator 2007 as a softphone – the really cool bit is how it integrates into Outlook and your Outlook contacts.
