One of the core convictions of the entire DEX movement is that if IT is responsible for the technological experiences of all employees, all the time, it must also have the means to measure and manage those experiences. Without this, it isn’t just an unreasonable expectation—it’s also ineffective for organizations and employees alike.
This insight has driven Nexthink to empower IT teams with the tools they need to see, diagnose, and fix every issue. We've consistently pushed the boundaries of IT’s capacity to improve user experience, ultimately earning recognition as the leader in both Gartner’s Magic Quadrant and Forrester’s Wave reports.
The Long-Standing Gap in VDI Experience
For too long, however, there’s been a glaring exception. Employees using Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) environments have remained, in many ways, invisible to IT teams. VDI-specific teams often lack the tools to understand the experiences of employees as they work within these environments.
The consequences? Frequent ticket escalations, often with insufficient insights to diagnose—let alone resolve—issues. This not only leaves VDI teams unfairly bearing the blame for incidents but can also cast undue blame on the VDI infrastructure itself, regardless of the actual root cause.
Given how many employees must rely on VDI infrastructure to perform their jobs, this scenario isn’t just frustrating—it’s a serious problem for organizations dependent on the success of their digital workforce.
