AppSense, the global leader of user environment management (UEM) solutions for the secure endpoint, today announced that it has joined the Nutanix Elevate Technology Alliance Partner Program and has received "Nutanix Ready" validation. When AppSense and Nutanix solutions are used together, enterprises can leverage hyperconverged infrastructure to simplify the deployment of virtual desktops for the speedier delivery of more secure, more responsive, more consistent, fully personalized desktops and applications. 

"AppSense is a valued member of the Nutanix Elevate program," said Venugopal Pai, Vice President, Strategic Alliances and Business Development, Nutanix. "Together we are delivering open, innovative and transformative solutions that enable enterprises to more quickly benefit from VDI deployments and realize the expansive value of hyperconverged infrastructure."

 

"We are pleased to receive Nutanix Ready validation for our AppSense solutions which are designed to secure, manage and optimize desktops," said Jed Ayres, Senior Vice President of Marketing, AppSense. "Hyperconverged architecture is the infrastructure of the future, enabling IT to focus on the end-user experience and not the tactical speeds and feeds that have plagued VDI deployments of the past. Nutanix and AppSense solutions deliver the optimal virtual desktop experience organizations need to improve endpoint security and performance for good."

One example of the value of the combined AppSense / Nutanix solution is the Virtual Clinical Workstation delivered by Coretek Services.
