CloudJumper, a leading provider of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Workspace as a Service (WaaS) and Desktop as a Service (DaaS) solutions, has announced the appointment of Robin Brandl as vice president of strategic alliances. Brandl joins CloudJumper as the company builds on its relationship with Microsoft and prepares for the combined delivery of Cloud Workspace Management Suite (CWMS) software with the Windows Virtual Desktop platform.
Brandl’s focus at CloudJumper will be to expand the company’s alliance with Microsoft and other technology partners while supporting the company’s base of solution delivery partners. Prior to CloudJumper, Brandl served as global business development manager for VMware’s Horizon Cloud on Azure business unit. Before VMware, he served as the enterprise mobility/RDS national sales lead for Microsoft, spearheading the launch of the platform throughout North America. Preceding Microsoft, he served as the global Microsoft evangelist for the Worldwide Microsoft Alliance Team at Citrix in support of desktop virtualization and VDI solutions.
“The introduction of Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktop and its integration with CWMS presents a tremendous opportunity for CloudJumper and its global ecosystem of IT solution providers,” said Brandl. “The company is bringing real innovation to the delivery and consumption of virtual desktop and IT workspace solutions by uniquely streamlining workflow orchestration and automation. I am very bullish on the market and excited to join CloudJumper in support of its cloud forward partners and customers.”
CloudJumper CWMS software is a complete cloud-based platform for Desktop as a Service (DaaS), Workspace as a Service (WaaS), and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) delivery, providing unprecedented ease of management and access to the productivity tools needed to run businesses in the cloud. CWMS delivers an integrated online experience that unifies business applications and corporate file systems using a full-featured Microsoft Windows desktop from anywhere, across any device. IT administrators retain complete control, security and auditability of their IT infrastructure for compliance through an intuitive browser-based management system that reduces support costs, increases service quality and improves responsiveness.
“The timing of this appointment is ideal as a greater number of businesses switch to virtual desktops, applications and complete workspaces in the cloud. Microsoft’s integration of CloudJumper CWMS and the introduction of Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktop validates the market and our approach,” said JD Helms, president of CloudJumper. “We are very pleased to have Robin join our team as his experience will be instrumental in the expansion of important technology partnerships globally.”
