Virtual desktops continue to be a hot market for solution providers even this far after the height of the global pandemic, with multiple solution providers telling CRN this week that customers recognize the reality of investing in virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) to allow remote work options but also to recognize security benefits from the technology.
Stratodesk’s NoTouch operating system promises users a thin, secure OS for virtual desktop and cloud environments capable of running on older desktop hardware or the latest laptop, PC, and even Raspberry Pi devices.
The San Francisco-based vendor’s offerings work with AVD, Citrix, VMware, Imprivata, and other environments, according to Stratodesk. The OS is Linux-based with no hardware purchases needed. Stratodesk also positions its product as a hardware lifespan expander that can save on IT budget.
Stratodesk has about 350 channel partners worldwide and about 120 in North America, according to CRN’s 2024 Channel Chiefs. About 85 percent of its overall sales come through indirect channels and alliance relationships.
