vSTAC is Horizon Cloud certified

Pivot3's vSTAC platform is now certified with VMware Horizon® Cloud to provide customers with virtualized desktops that combine the simplicity and rapid deployment of the cloud with the security and control of on-premises infrastructure.

Horizon Cloud with on-premises infrastructure enables the unified management of on-premises virtual desktops and applications through a single-cloud control plane. When combined with Pivot3’s innovative HCI solutions, the service delivers plug-and-play simplicity so customers can rapidly deploy virtual desktops and applications to thousands of users in less than an hour, all while improving user productivity and minimizing infrastructure complexity and costs.
