Managing cloud desktops at scale has never been straightforward, especially for IT teams navigating a mix of Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Windows 365, and physical endpoints. Nerdio’s latest release—Manager for Enterprise 7.0—tackles this complexity with a focused update designed to streamline planning, migration, automation, and cost control in hybrid environments.
Unified Endpoint Management for Hybrid Workforces
Nerdio Manager for Enterprise 7.0 builds on the platform’s core mission: simplifying and automating the management of Microsoft cloud-based endpoints. While it has long supported AVD, this release enhances support for Windows 365 and expands management capabilities to include physical devices—addressing a growing need for unified endpoint control in organizations blending cloud and on-premises infrastructures.
Deeper Integration with Microsoft Intune
At the center of the update is deeper integration with Microsoft Intune. Version 7.0 brings granular policy control, usage visibility, and administrative oversight into one interface, simplifying the management of the entire cloud desktop lifecycle. This allows IT teams to shift from reactive troubleshooting to proactive optimization, gaining visibility across virtual and physical endpoints alike.
Key Features in Version 7.0
Nerdio Manager for Enterprise 7.0 introduces several enhancements that target common pain points in enterprise IT environments:
Flexible Pricing for Diverse Environments
To support diverse deployment models, Nerdio is also rolling out new pricing and packaging structures, including flexible options for enterprises managing both AVD and Windows 365. The goal is to give organizations more control over their IT environments—both in terms of functionality and financial planning.
A Smarter Approach to Cloud Desktop Management
As IT teams continue to adopt cloud-first strategies, tools that bring consistency and predictability across platforms will be critical. Nerdio Manager for Enterprise 7.0 aims to close the operational gaps between virtual desktops, cloud PCs, and physical devices—enabling smarter, more scalable endpoint management.
Enabling MSPs to Deliver More with Less
For MSPs managing multiple enterprise environments, Nerdio Manager for Enterprise 7.0 simplifies the day-to-day by automating time-consuming tasks like provisioning, scaling, and policy enforcement across Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, and physical endpoints. This reduces reliance on manual scripting and fragmented tools, enabling leaner teams to deliver consistent, secure, and scalable services from a single interface. The deeper integration with Microsoft Intune further streamlines endpoint management, making it easier to apply and maintain uniform policies across clients while improving response times and reducing complexity.
In parallel, built-in dashboards, usage analytics, and AI-driven cost recommendations give MSPs greater visibility into client environments. This allows them to proactively identify inefficiencies, optimize licensing, and demonstrate cost savings—strengthening their role as strategic advisors, not just support providers. By reducing operational overhead and surfacing actionable insights, Nerdio Manager empowers MSPs to expand their service offerings, manage more clients with fewer resources, and deliver measurable value at scale.
