Having been both a consumer and a vendor of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solutions, Labana is uniquely equipped to take Workspot’s unrelenting commitment to customer success to the next level. Pandit brings deep business strategy and analytical expertise to Workspot’s strategic partnerships.
As an early pioneer and leader of VDI solutions while at Goldman Sachs and then as an executive at both Citrix and VMware, Labana developed a deep understanding of the challenges faced by customers using complex, traditional VDI solutions. At the core of Workspot’s approach to its cloud-native solutions – Desktop Cloud, App Cloud and Workstation Cloud – is simplicity, which ultimately allows customers to get back to business rather than grapple with IT infrastructure. In his new role, Labana will focus on fine-tuning all aspects of Workspot’s business to continue yielding outstanding customer outcomes during a time of high-velocity growth. Access his blog here.
Pandit has extensive experience performing due diligence on venture capital and private equity investments. His analytical skills for evaluating business strategy and the competitive landscape will add tremendous value to the development of products and services, in conjunction with strategic technology partners, that serve customers best.
Workspot’s cloud-native, next-generation VDI solutions, coupled with its industry-first customer success program, delivers unmatched time-to-value for customers. Both Labana and Pandit will further the company’s “customer-first” approach in all aspects of the business.
Amitabh Sinha, CEO and co-founder of Workspot, said: “These additions to our team underscore our commitment, in every aspect of our business, to ensure that customers are successful with our solutions. Harry has the VDI domain expertise to be able to relate, first-hand, to customer pain around legacy VDI implementations. He has literally ‘been there, done that.’ Similarly, our technology partnerships reflect customer needs, and Tarun will work closely with select partners to craft new solutions that serve our customers. The confidence Harry and Tarun have in Workspot’s modern approach to VDI as a turnkey, cloud-native service speaks volumes about the value we are bringing to our customers. We could not be more pleased to have them on board.”
