The LoadGen Add-in can be used for Citrix Enhanced, Microsoft Remote Desktop and Omnissa Horizon
From release 5.0.0.6281 - 2020-Q3, you can also use the LoadGen Add-in for enhanced Citrix sessions
From release 2026-Q4 - 5.0.0.13120, you can also use the LoadGen Add-in for the Omnissa Horizon target. For golden images and Virtual Channel Security, read Omnissa Horizon with the LoadGen Add-in (sign-in required). The Omnissa Horizon (Legacy) target does not use the add-in: it uses the LoadGen Agent inside the desktop, see Is it possible to install the LoadGen Agent manually? (sign-in required).
The Azure Virtual Desktop target in the LoadGen Director also uses the LoadGen Agent inside the desktop, not the add-in. On the LoadGen Platform, an Azure Virtual Desktop profile does need the add-in: follow Install the LoadGen RDS add-in on an Azure Virtual Desktop session host (sign-in required).
