About Workspot
Workspot, Inc. operates in the enterprise end-user computing market, offering a cloud-native platform for delivering virtual desktops and applications. The company was founded in 2012 by Amitabh Sinha and Puneet Chawla. Sinha, the CEO, previously held the role of General Manager for Enterprise Desktops and Apps at Citrix, while Chawla, the CTO, was the former head of engineering for VMware's VDI platform, bringing extensive experience in the virtualization space to their new venture. This background provided them with deep insights into the complexities of traditional Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), which directly shaped Workspot's approach.
Read full description
The company's core offering is the Workspot Enterprise VDI Platform, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution designed to simplify the deployment and management of virtual desktops and applications. It caters to enterprises looking to modernize their end-user computing infrastructure, supporting a distributed workforce with secure access to corporate resources from any device. The platform's architecture allows for deployment across various public clouds, such as Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Amazon Web Services, as well as on-premises data centers, facilitating hybrid and multi-cloud strategies for its clients. This flexibility addresses a range of use cases, from securing sensitive data for remote contractors to providing high-performance virtual workstations for engineers and designers using graphics-intensive applications.
Workspot's business model is subscription-based, generating revenue by charging customers for access to its VDI platform. A key differentiator is its control plane, which is entirely managed in the cloud as a service. This architecture separates the management and control functions from the data plane, where the actual workloads run, allowing for greater scalability and simplified administration for IT teams. The platform is engineered for rapid deployment, a significant departure from the lengthy implementation cycles associated with traditional VDI solutions. Over the years, Workspot has achieved several milestones, including securing multiple rounds of funding from investors like Charles River Ventures, Helion Venture Partners, and Microsoft's M12, which has fueled its product development and market expansion.
