XTIUM Recognized for the Third Consecutive Year in the 2025 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for Desktop as a Service Report
“DaaS solutions allow remote workers, offshore workers, third-party employees, contractors, frontline workers and office workers to access virtual desktops hosted in the cloud.”
NEW YORK – September 9, 2025 – XTIUM, a next-generation global Managed Services Provider (MSP), today announced that Gartner has recognized XTIUM in the 2025 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Desktop as a Service. In this research, Gartner highlights “management services” as XTIUM’s highest-rated capability, reflecting XTIUM’s broad service portfolio and appeal to customers seeking a fully-managed DaaS solution.
“Interest in desktop as a service (DaaS) is growing. The market’s 2025-2029 compound annual growth rate is forecast around 8%, whereas revenue growth in the on-premises virtual desktop infrastructure market has been flat — around 2% — with actual user counts declining” according to Gartner.
"Enterprises aren’t looking for desktop solutions, they’re looking for outcomes — secure, cost-predictable work environments that scale globally. Our recognition in Gartner’s Critical Capabilities underscores that XTIUM is delivering exactly that. We’re helping IT leaders cut through complexity with a managed DaaS model that drives measurable employee experience, lowers total cost of ownership, and enables faster digital transformation” said Walt Walker, Chief Revenue Officer, XTIUM.
Gartner projects: “by 2027, virtual desktops will be cost-effective for 95% of workers compared to 40% in 2019.” Read the report for more such insights https://xtium.com/gartner-critical-capabilities-for-desktop-as-a-service-full-2025
