WAYNE, Pa. January 27, 2017 – Evolve IP, The Cloud Services Company™, today announced that it has been included in the 2016 Gartner Market Guide for Desktop as a Service (DaaS).

First, user productivity increases due to anytime – anywhere desktop access. Second, IT desktop management is easier – from delivering updates and patches to securing machines. Third, organizational security is enhanced with the ability to easily protect sensitive corporate data regardless of what an employee does with his or her physical devices. As these benefits are realized and market awareness increases we expect to see even greater adoption in 2017.”
