SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stratodesk, the leading innovator of an ultra-secure operating system (OS) for modern workspaces, today announced its new strategic partnership with Island, the leader and pioneer in the Enterprise Browser market, to offer customers an integration of the Island Enterprise Browser in its NoTouch OS. This combined solution provides a modern alternative to the legacy endpoint technology stack, empowering customers to enhance their secure NoTouch OS with an Enterprise Browser solution for complete control, visibility, and governance over the last mile.
The modern enterprise is changing. While VDI and DaaS are still the go-to solutions for many enterprises, IT leaders are seeking alternatives due to increased complexity and rising costs driven by contract work, outsourcing, BYOD, web and SaaS application adoption, and hybrid workspaces.
Stratodesk and Island are offering customers an alternative choice to their traditional physical desktop, VDI or DaaS approach. Island’s Enterprise Browser is now available in NoTouch OS, adding an extra layer of security, control, and visibility when customers are accessing their SaaS and web applications from a secure NoTouch device. Customers using this solution will benefit from a simplified and flexible environment giving endpoints higher levels of security while being easier to manage and more cost effective to deploy and support.
“In the last few years, more and more enterprises have moved from thick apps to virtual desktop infrastructure, to Desktop-as-a-Service, and now to the Enterprise Browser. As the company at the forefront of this evolution toward a more modern, secure and seamless work environment, Island was the clear choice for our first enterprise browser partner,” said Steve Thompson, CRO at Stratodesk. “We look forward to offering this solution to customers seeking highly granular controls, simplified management, and lower costs.”
“This partnership marks a significant milestone in accelerating modernization in the enterprise,” said Richard Greene, Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Island. “Stratodesk enables this evolution by modernizing and simplifying the OS — helping organizations lengthen the lifespan of their hardware investments and simplify operational complexity. Partnering with Island advances this evolution by modernizing the browser, the now de-facto access point for the majority of business-critical applications. Together, this partnership reduces cost and complexity with a more modern endpoint — empowering businesses to thrive in the modern era.”
“At XenTegra, we deliver top-tier solutions that empower organizations to navigate the complexities of modern work environments with ease, and Island and Stratodesk are part of that stronger security and easier management solution,” shared Andy Whiteside, CEO at XenTegra. “With Island’s Enterprise Browser seamlessly integrated into Stratodesk’s NoTouch OS, our customers can gain unprecedented control and security over their digital environments.”
Simultaneously with the product integration Stratodesk welcomes Island as a valued Stratodesk Plus member. Stratodesk Plus is an extensive ecosystem of fully integrated and certified partner solutions with NoTouch OS to ensure product compatibility and customer satisfaction in joint solutions.
