Will BYOD Revive The Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Technology?

If you’ve already attempted a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) implementation project for your company and it didn’t go well, worry not. Now “Bring Your Own Device” (BYOD) is breathing new life into the Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Technology.

A survey conducted by the Forrester Research indicates that employees are ready to spend their own money on devices — many have already accepted BYOD trends.  There’s always a reason why they are interested in client virtualization technology, it’s more about the “employee workstyle flexibility” than cost and efficiency.

The study also suggests that If the senior management team of the company anticipates a long-term dependency on the Windows desktop—say, 5 years and beyond, then they might want to consider one of a half-dozen virtual desktop solutions – “For most large organizations, virtualizing Windows applications to support BYOD would be very likely a medium to long-term solution.”

Today i have listed some of the best “Virtual Desktop Infrastructure” or “VDI” vendors:
