Anyone running Advanced HTML5? If so, why?

[woodyak]

We used to run free PCS HTML5 but we found it to be flakey and unpredictable at best. We turned it off when it maxed out the CPUs on our PSA7K Cluster and shut everything down. Supposedly, that's fixed now, but the bosses are too scared to let me turn it back on Anybody running Advanced HTML5? If so, are there any improvements? The marketing materials aren't sucking me in.

from a product perspective, some benefits are: it is not expected to crash your system (the same load as the basic/legacy HTML5 RDP access shows much better utilization of CPU & memory in our lab), full multi-monitor support, and VNC bookmarks.

So we have to pay extra in order to " not expect it to crash"

for the additional functionality with multiple monitors and vnc access, yes
apologies on the wording tied to the efficiency of the HTML5 engine with the advanced option; that was a poor choice of words. unfortunately, if you do not have users with multiple monitors or needing vnc access, yes.
if you only have a handful of users that utilize HTML5 bookmarks, do not need multiple monitors, or do not need vnc, using the legacy/basic HTML5 option is probably the best
i will defer to others to comment on benefits; apologies

@woodyak Advanced HTML5 is using a different proxy engine (commercial) for handling those connections. Hence, more reliable than the opensource Guac and 3X performance scale + paid
