Nerdio Scores Enterprise Win with Kyndryl

Nerdio has scored a huge enterprise partner in the form of Kyndryl. The world’s largest IT infrastructure services provider is strengthening its Microsoft virtual desktop services with the new partnership.

The collaboration will bolster Kyndryl’s capabilities specifically across Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Windows 365, and Microsoft Intune.

Nerdio Enterprise Ambitions

Nerdio’s software has traditionally helped MSPs help their smaller customers leverage Microsoft cloud solutions. However, earlier this year Nerdio re-launched its Enterprise ‘Partnerd’ Program to cater to partners serving much larger organizations. Partnering with Kyndryl signals a move further into the large enterprise.

Both companies said they want to support IT modernization for customers. Joint activities will include solution co-creation, technical integration, and knowledge sharing.

Among the benefits, Kyndryl and Nerdio said their aim is to help customers manage and optimize IT environments to drive efficiency and productivity. They also said customers can leverage “robust security measures” and compliance frameworks to safeguard critical data and mitigate risks. Additionally, customers can “respond quickly to changing market dynamics and customer demands, enabling faster innovation and growth.”
