IT teams are under the growing pressure of balancing day‑to‑day operations while being asked to do more: improve security, support a distributed workforce, and get more life out of existing devices. At IGEL’s Now & Next Conference, we announced an expanded IGEL managed service offering that directly addresses these challenges and forms the strategic backbone of the IGEL + Omnissa Horizon Accelerator Program.

The expanded integrations between IGEL and Omnissa strengthen the Horizon Accelerator program, combining expert guidance with tightly integrated endpoint and virtual desktop technologies to help organizations successfully optimize their digital workspace.

Use Horizon Accelerator as an operational advantage

Horizon Accelerator is built to help organizations overcome the challenges IT teams often face when modernizing their digital workspace environments. Many teams simply don’t have the time or specialized expertise required to properly deploy their environments. The result can be slow adoption, inconsistent performance, or environments that become too difficult to maintain over time.

Horizon Accelerator turns these pitfalls into strengths by providing:

• Expert-driven guidance from the Horizon Pros, a team of seasoned Horizon specialists available around the clock
• Day‑0 to Day‑2 coverage, ensuring environments are deployed correctly and continuously tuned
• Hands-on services and knowledge transfer, helping teams build confidence and capability
• Operational offload, reducing the burden of routine VDI tasks so IT can focus on higher-value work

Accelerate time to value with Omnissa and IGEL

Through the expanded partnership between IGEL and Omnissa, customers benefit from closer collaboration between the two companies, helping ensure endpoint strategy and virtual desktop environments work seamlessly together. The expanded IGEL and Omnissa partnership amplifies the model in several ways:

• Unified endpoint and virtualization lifecycle management across IGEL OS, IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), Horizon, and Workspace ONE
• Shared ownership between IGEL and Omnissa, eliminating vendor handoffs and ambiguity
• Assigned resources on both sides, ensuring continuity and deep familiarity with each customer’s environment

“This strengthened partnership with IGEL accelerates innovation at the endpoint, ensuring customers gain both resilience and agility.” said Arindam Nag, VP product management at Omnissa.
