"The shift to remote work has changed how businesses manage their IT infrastructure, with virtual desktop solutions becoming essential for many organisations. As companies expand, they often find themselves at a crossroads when evaluating remote desktop technologies. Citrix, once the leading player in this space, now faces stiff competition from alternatives that offer similar functionality at different price points and with varying deployment models."
"For small and medium-sized businesses in particular, the difficulty and expense of enterprise-level virtual desktop infrastructure can be prohibitive. Many growing companies seek solutions that provide secure remote access without the overhead of full VDI implementations. The market has responded with a range of options that cater specifically to businesses looking for more straightforward deployment, lower total cost of ownership, and flexible access methods."
Remote work has driven widespread adoption of virtual desktop solutions as organisations seek secure remote access. Enterprise-level VDI can be costly and complex, prompting many growing companies to pursue lighter-weight alternatives. The market now offers cloud-based Desktop-as-a-Service and hybrid solutions that blend on-premises control with cloud flexibility. These options emphasize browser-based access, simplified licensing, and integration with existing IT infrastructure. UK SMEs are moving away from legacy remote desktop systems due to complicated licensing, separate modules for access and security, and limited in-house licensing expertise that increases forecasting and deployment risk.
