VMware PEX 2012 Wrap-Up

Well, it’s been “One Week” since we were standing on the very busy showcase floor at the Venetian in Las Vegas.   That’s right, the Unidesk team is back from participating in our 2^nd VMware Partner Exchange (PEX).  PEX is all about providing a forum for VMware’s solution partner ecosystem to learn the latest and greatest on VMware’s solutions, network with other VMware partners, experts and executives and explore best practices to sell more effectively.    VMware does a great job of pulling it all together. 

This year, Unidesk sent a team of five and between all the conferences with existing partners and meeting new potential partners at the exhibit, we were exhausted at the close of each showcase day.  It was a solid two and a half days of talking about Unidesk and the value we bring our customers’ VDI deployments.  Whether you are in Higher Education, State/Local Government or Healthcare, our layering technology is the magic that will help your customers:  simplify application packaging and delivery, streamline desktop provisioning and patching, minimize storage use, and provide a high performance, customizable desktop experience that users require. The net-net: We get your customers to VDI production.

Don’t worry though, we still managed to have some fun – after all, it is Vegas right?  Actually, one of the highlights of the event was a private concert by the Bare Naked Ladies on Wednesday evening. (Now you understand my “One Week” reference in my opening sentence!)  They were hysterical and just amazing performers.   One lucky attendee even got pulled up on stage and got to play the electric guitar with lead singer Ed Robertson.   So jealous!

A special thank you to our friends at BEAR Data, Dell, GOVPLACE, KIS, and NWN for spending time with us last week!  Together – we are going to make 2012 the year for Virtual Desktops!
