Island

Laggy mouse movements, pixelated screen images, unresponsive clicks, endless loading screens, the dreaded “wheel of death.” Unfortunately, that experience –  frustratingly slow and out of sync – has become the norm for VDI users. But VDI’s not just an inconvenience; its usage negatively impacts productivity and hurts business outcomes. For the majority of enterprise applications, there’s no longer a need to compensate for the limitations of VDI with an overall poor experience for end users. It’s time to embrace a solution that naturally and securely enhances productivity and drives organizational success. It’s time for smoother operations and happier users. It’s time for an enterprise browser. See the difference: https://lnkd.in/gVH8x3GV

Secure access to critical apps, all the way from the front desk to housekeeping to the C-suite. The world’s largest, most powerful organizations run on Island. See you at check-in.

You can’t just flip a switch and turn organizational security on or off. Or at least, you shouldn’t. Because with rigid security controls come frustrated, inconvenienced end users who often try to find their own way around it. There’s a new way - one that’s flexible, lets you govern security, data, and users down to the most granular level, and most importantly: so smooth and natural that there’s no negative impact on your users’ efficiency and productivity. Our co-founder and CEO Michael Fey shares more.

If your business is feeling the weight of multiplying VDI costs year over year, this one’s for you. We’re hosting a webinar with our friends at Lydonia this Thursday. Tune in to learn how the Enterprise Browser reduces VDI compute, virtualization, and licensing spend by up to 80%, all while naturally increasing your security posture. We’ll be sharing some critical use cases, doing a live demo, and taking any questions you may have. Hope to see you there. Register here: https://lnkd.in/gRZJndSJ

Our VP of Solutions Engineering, Uy Huynh, has a shortlist of priorities that security leaders at modern orgs should be keeping top of mind in 2024: - Developing a clear SaaS strategy - Having clear visibility and control of data - Making sure you have a good read on who and what accesses that data Read the rest of his pre-Black Hat Q&A with VMblog to see Uy’s top tips for making the most out of this year’s show: https://lnkd.in/gYp9tvGY Heading to Black Hat in a couple weeks? Us too. We’ll see you in Vegas at booth #2950.

The cost of VDI continues to rise dramatically, at a time when it’s not offering any new innovation. A time when work is almost completely cloud-based, and we’re asking VDI to do things it doesn’t need to do, for reasons it wasn’t built for. A time when it’s become a barrier to our end users and their productivity. The future of work isn’t virtualized. It’s built in. The future is here. And it’s as simple as swapping out your browser.

Between the pandemic’s impact on work-life balance and the rise of BYOD, the line between personal and business has blurred when it comes to the browsers we use. We’ve used VDI as a tool to fortify that line, but it’s come with its own set of problems – It’s expensive, it’s clunky, it’s frustrating for end users. But there’s a new path forward. A path that doesn’t have to completely overhaul and replace VDI and DaaS, but can radically reduce its usage and associated costs instead. A path that naturally folds all the IT, security, and productivity gains of VDI into the familiar browsing experience users love. A path that doesn’t make your team choose between personal privacy and workplace security. That path forward is the Enterprise Browser – work’s natural next step.

What are we capable of achieving when our work lives on a browser that’s meant for work – a browser that’s completely secure by design? Much like organizational security, it’s a high stakes question. 🎰 Come see us at booth #2950 at Black Hat 2024 to find out. Looking forward to seeing you in Vegas. #BHUSA
