Workspace Environment Management

What’s new

What’s new in 2507

Tip:

You can download the latest Workspace Environment Management installer from the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops downloads page https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-virtual-apps-and-desktops/. On that page, access the installer under Components of the latest version of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops.

This release includes the following new features and addresses issues to improve the user experience:

File-based licensing system EOL notification

File-based licensing system, traditionally used to activate Citrix on-premises components, will reach End of Life (EOL) on April 15, 2026. License Activation Service (LAS) is the next-generation technology for product activation across Citrix products. Starting April 15, 2026, LAS will be the only method to activate and license Citrix on-premises components.

To remain supported, ensure your Citrix Workspace Environment Management deployment runs on a LAS-compatible version. The minimum required version is 2507.

If you have questions, contact Citrix Customer Care. Citrix might limit or suspend your Citrix Maintenance for non-compliance with these requirements, in addition to other legal remedies. These requirements don’t apply where prohibited by law or regulation.

Support for activating WEM with the License Activation Service

You can now activate Workspace Environment Management™ (WEM) using the License Activation Service (LAS), a cloud-based alternative to the legacy Citrix® licensing.

To use LAS, accept its security certificate when configuring the infrastructure services and configuring the administration console.
