• Have clearly defined use cases and are looking to implement Cloud Desktops.
• Already have done a POC or are actively in the process.
• Have limited time with in-house team for EUC implementations.
• Do not have any managed services provider to help with post EUC support to address teething issues.
• Have bought Cloud Desktop infrastructure but are struggling to implement all the parameters of the product.
• End-to-end management of complete workload transfer from existing infrastructure to the cloud.
• Smooth upscaling from the initial POC stage to migration of all users across all geographic locations.
• Assistance with realizing the complete benefit of moving to the cloud.
CHALLENGES
CLOUD ADOPTION IS IDEAL SOLUTION
Cloud Adoption
Most organizations across Industries often fail to move beyond the POC
to achieve the targeted scale of cloud adoption. This happens due to
several reasons including inability to implement different use cases,
inability to deliver a smooth, trouble free transition experience to end
users or not providing high quality end user experience.
“At this point, cloud adoption is mainstream,” said
Sid Nag, research vice president
at Gartner. “The expectations of the outcomes associated with cloud investments
therefore are also higher. Adoption of next-generation solutions are almost always
‘cloud
-
enhanced’ solutions, meaning they build on the strengths of a cloud platform
to deliver digital business capabilities.”

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
"Anunta and the team were one of the best vendors I have worked with while at the Company“
Project Manager, A Government Administration
"I would say 5’s across the board.
You guys have been very methodical and detail oriented in your project management and technical implementation. I was
pleased with Prasanna’s technical skillset, he seemed quite knowledgeable, especially when customizing UEM for us and trying to lower user profile loading
times.
I gave you guys raving reviews to Paul Smith who I met at your folks’ booth at VMworld a few weeks ago.
No complaints whatsoever. Appreciate your
help on this and look forward to working with you guys again if that opportunity arises.“
