eG Innovations, a world leader in providing digital workspace monitoring solutions, announced the results from its 2021 “Digital Workspace Deployment & Performance Monitoring in the New Normal” survey. The survey report, jointly conducted with xenappblog, is a compilation of responses from 1,050 digital workspace professionals from across the world and includes learnings, analysis, and trends that will be useful for any IT professional working with digital workspace technologies.

“Digital Workspace Deployment & Performance Monitoring in the New Normal”

A digital workspace is an integrated technology framework that allows employees and remote workers to access their apps and data in real time – on any device, from any location, regardless of whether the information is stored in the cloud or in a data center. Key digital workspace technologies include Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, Citrix Cloud service, Microsoft Remote Desktop, VMware Horizon, VMware Horizon Cloud Service, Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktops (WVD), and AWS WorkSpaces and AppStream.

This is one of the largest surveys ever conducted in the digital workspace domain. It was conducted between December 2020 and February 2021 and specifically focused on changes that organizations had to make due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
