What’s New in Nerdio Manager for Enterprise 7.0?
Here are the key enhancements in this latest version of the platform:
- Streamlined Planning and Migration: Nerdio has integrated intelligent modeling, app migration tools, and automated workflows to simplify the transition from traditional on-premises setups or legacy virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) systems to Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop. This speeds up deployment and minimizes disruptions.
- Better Visibility and Insights: Enhanced dashboards and deeper integration with Microsoft Intune offer a clearer view into endpoint management and cloud desktop environments. This feature helps IT teams stay on top of performance, security, and usage metrics.
