Some Key Findings include:
- "Digital workplace leaders find it increasingly difficult to navigate factors surrounding choices for desktop delivery, including use case, worker location, data location, security and compliance requirements, and business continuity."
- "Most organizations have valid use cases for multiple desktop delivery approaches across PCs, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), and desktop as a service (DaaS)delivery models. DaaS is becoming an increasingly viable third option, given its maturity, feature set and participating vendors."
- "Driven by inflation, budget concerns and economic uncertainty, many Gartner clients are migrating some on-premises VDI to a combination of DaaS and modern managed PCs."
