Cloud Desktop Webinar Roundup: IT Experts, Thought Leaders Share Their Wisdom

Most IT teams are exploring the possibilities that come with cloud desktops and workstations. Are they right for your organization? Many of you have tried traditional, on-prem VDI when it was the only game in town, only to be limited by its complexity and ever-growing operational costs. Some of you might also be considering cloud-hosted desktops from the legacy VDI vendors to try to alleviate some of that complexity, reduce costs, or to gain agility that physical desktops and workstations can’t deliver.

For any of the approaches to cloud desktops you’re considering, IT leaders and solution architects must understand how solution architectures either enable or limit your ability to meet your end user computing requirements now and for the long term.

That’s why we started our Cloud Strategies webinar series. It’s a place you can come to hear from Workspot customers who’ve been down the virtual desktop evaluation road already – so you can benefit from their wisdom. Even if the webinar we’re hosting is not in your particular industry, there’s plenty of great insights from these IT leaders that will help you ask the right questions of virtual desktop vendors.

Our On the Spot! thought leadership webinar series features IT visionaries sharing their latest insights on cloud computing and digital transformation. It’s a place for IT experts and the cloud desktop community to gather, share, brainstorm, and learn.

Here’s our cloud desktop webinar roundup of some recent webinars I think you’ll enjoy.
