What’s Being Sold: The EUC business unit encompasses a range of virtualization products, including VMware Horizon Cloud (DaaS), VMware Workspace ONE (unified endpoint management), Dynamic Environment Manager, and App Volumes (application layering). These EUC solutions provide users with access to desktops and applications from any device, anywhere.

Echoes of Citrix: This news comes on the heels of the recent acquisition of Citrix, another major player in the virtual desktop space. That acquisition has caused significant disruption for Citrix customers, with reports of new pricing models, degraded support, and uncertainty about the future of the products. Both the Citrix and VMware acquisitions have resulted in significant layoffs, as well, leading to many of their customers doubting the level of support and innovation the organizations will maintain moving forward.

There’s a Trend in Legacy VDI & DaaS: The acquisitions of Citrix and VMware, coupled with the spin-out of Frame from Nutanix, paint a clear picture: legacy VDI and DaaS solutions are facing significant challenges. This turmoil highlights a broader shift towards Virtual App Delivery (VAD) solutions, which offer a more agile and cost-effective way to deliver applications to users.

Alternatives to VMware’s EUC Products: Unlike VDI and DaaS, which require Microsoft Windows-based virtual desktops, VAD solutions actively eliminate the need for Windows virtual desktops while still enabling you to deliver any app to any device. This eliminates the need for costly and complex infrastructure and simplifies management.
