“I am delighted to join Workspot at such a pivotal time in the company's growth. Modern VDI is revolutionizing the way we work today, enabling businesses to become more agile, while also reducing end-user computing costs. We’re seeing demand flourish as enterprise organizations seek to modernize outdated VDI solutions, and with Workspot’s most recent NPS score of 80, it’s clear that our customers are thriving,” said Tompkins. “I’m looking forward to collaborating with the team to bring these compelling benefits to more customers across the globe.”
Tompkins’ trajectory in the software industry led him to hold several leadership roles.

After six years at Citrix, Brad worked outside the EUC community at HP and Red Hat for several years. I was excited to see him return to EUC in 2017 when he joined IGEL as VP of Sales for Americas, then as Global CRO. He helped the company transition from hardware to software and rocket through its hyper-growth period. I expect great things from Brad and from Workspot as they evolve into a hybrid/multi-cloud Enterprise VDI solution.”
