Webinar | Introducing Apporto NextGen - Relief for VMware Horizon and Citrix Customers

This webinar is a part of the EDUCAUSE Industry Insights series.

Join us in this interactive session as we discuss the turmoil in the VDI market, and how GWU is moving away from legacy VDI. During this session, Apporto will be introducing NextGen which enables customers to swap out their legacy VDI and run Apporto on-prem. Further, the hybrid architecture of Apporto enables customers to recover from disasters to the cloud and burst into the cloud when workloads peak.

Hear from Jared Johnson, Associate VP, Academic Technology & Customer Experience at George Washington University, and Phil Spitze, with extensive 25+ years in technology, including deep expertise in VMware and Citrix systems, complemented by his tenure at Le Moyne College and Keene State College, as they delve into recent developments among leading VDI vendors and how GWU moved away from traditional VDI.

Apporto NextGen provides versatile on-premises, hybrid, and cloud infrastructure options - backed with a compelling offer to Educause members to price-match customers’ original Horizon and Citrix support or subscription fees, providing an accessible pathway without disrupting any budgets.
