Innovative Desktop Transformation Solutions Company Acknowledged Fourth Year in a Row.
CHICAGO, IL., April 11, 2016 – Liquidware Labs, the leader in desktop transformation software solutions, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named the company to its 2016 Virtualization 50 list. The annual list recognizes channel-friendly companies that provide some of the most innovative virtualization technology available.
Selected by CRN editors, the 2016 Virtualization 50 list recognizes technology vendors that are leading the way in meeting a growing need for state-of-the-art virtualization offerings. These vendors are instrumental in helping solution providers select and deploy the right tools for building virtualized environments—a critical first step in transitioning customers to the cloud. In addition to honoring vendors for outstanding products and services, the list serves as a valuable guide for solution providers looking for best-in-class virtualization technology suppliers.
CRN editors select companies for the Virtualization 50 list on the basis of multiple criteria, including each company's overall impact on the market, its influence on the channel as a whole, and the desirability of the technology and services it makes available to its partners.
Selling only via the channel, Liquidware Labs has a strong partner base in Citrix, VMware and Microsoft channels. Its desktop transformation solutions provide Desktop Monitoring and Diagnostics with Stratusphere™ UX, User Environment Management and Application Layering with ProfileUnity™ and FlexApp™.
"Virtualization encompasses some of the most powerful tools in the IT industry today, enabling the centralization of resources and remarkable scalability of IT infrastructure," said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "This thriving segment of the IT market is the driving force behind the rapid, fascinating transformation of the data center, and we are pleased to shine a spotlight on some of the key players in this space."
"This is the fourth year running that Liquidware Labs has been named to CRN’s Virtualization 50. As a 100% channel- focused company, we couldn’t be more proud to be honored with this recognition from the leading channel publication," stated Chris Akerberg, COO, Liquidware Labs. "With so much momentum in the desktop virtualization market, the channel has a unique opportunity to capitalize on this segment in 2016."
