Date: April 14, 2026 Subject: Functionality, Requirements, and Performance of the Microsoft Teams VDI Plugin Audience: IT Infrastructure, EUC (End-User Computing) Teams, VDI Architects 1. Executive Summary The Microsoft Teams VDI Plugin (part of the broader Teams VDI optimization framework) is a critical component enabling Microsoft Teams to function efficiently in virtualized desktop environments (Citrix, VMware Horizon, AVD). Without this plugin, Teams falls back to a generic redirection mode, causing high CPU usage on the host, poor audio/video quality, and excessive bandwidth consumption.
