The global desktop virtualization market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 24.74% to reach a value ofUS$43.897 billion by 2025 from US$11.654 billion in 2019
The increasing adoption of information communication and technology and cloud-computing solutions across different end-user industries such as healthcare, BFSI, IT and telecom among others are driving the market growth of desktop virtualization. The use of desktop virtualization solutions is increasing across these industries to reduce the operational costs involved, effective management of resources, and security of the important data generated to gain a competitive edge and maximize profits. Rapid elevation in the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) has also a noticeable impact on the growth of the desktop virtualization market. Rising advancements in the field of IT and communications is driving the demand for desktop virtualization solutions.
Increasing investments to enhance desktop virtualization solutions provides a great opportunity for market players to contribute to the growth of the desktop virtualization market over the forecast period. For instance, recently, Terradici announced the launch of its “Cloud Access Software, a virtual desktop solution, which is the first third-party solution that is available for the integration with Microsoft Azure Stack. It facilitates quick and secure integration into the Azure Stack Hub solution, which provides many benefits. In September 2019, Microsoft announced the global availability of “Windows Virtual Desktop”. This service is able to facilitate the delivery of simplified management of a multi-session Windows 10 experience, optimized support for Windows Server Remote Desktop (RDS) desktops and apps. This service also allows the deployment and scaling of users’ desktops and apps on Microsoft Azure.
However, the high upfront investment and cost associated with the deployment of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is hindering the growth of the desktop virtualization market. Moreover, growing concerns regarding data safety and security is also hampering the market growth of desktop virtualization. Market players are expanding their portfolio of desktop virtualization solutions in order to increase their profit margins, further contributing to the market growth. For example, in July 2017, Dell Inc. expanded its product portfolio with a release of a broad set of desktop virtualization (VDI) solutions, including the new Wyse Management Suite Software and Dell EMC XC Xpress for VDI appliance. In March 2019, Microsoft introduced Azure Stack HCI Solutions, a new implementation of its on-premise Azure product for Hyper-Converged Infrastructure hardware.
The desktop virtualization market has been segmented based on type, enterprise size, industry vertical, delivery platform and geography. By type, the market has been segmented as a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), remote desktop services (RDS) and desktop as a service (DaaS). By enterprise size, the desktop virtualization market has been segmented into small, medium and large. By industry vertical, the market has been segmented as BFSI, education, retail, healthcare, it and telecom, and others. By the delivery platform, the market has been segmented as hosted virtual desktops and hosted shared desktops.
Desktop as a Service (DaaS) to hold a significant market share
Desktop as a Service (DaaS) is expected to hold a significant market share in the global desktop virtualization market owing to the emerging popularity of cloud computing. Cloud computing is increasingly being used by enterprises of different sizes to reduce operational costs while easing the data and application access that are not installed on the computers or servers. Thus, easy implementation, accessibility, flexibility, and reduced cost of cloud hosting are augmenting the adoption of cloud computing which, in turn, is positively impacting the demand for DaaS.
Rising adoption among small enterprises
According to the OECD statistics, SMEs (small and medium enterprises) account for 60 to 70 percent of jobs in most OECD countries. The demand for desktop virtualization solutions across the small enterprise segment is increasing at a growing rate. This growth is attributed to the fact that desktop virtualization solutions eliminate the need for technical staff and IT resources that are needed to maintain and operate systems. Since small enterprises have limited budgets, desktop virtualization solutions act as a cost-effective solution with servers and equipment hosted on the service providers’ side. Some providers including VMWare, Citrix, and IBM are offering affordable desktop virtualization solutions, especially for small businesses.
IT and Telecom industry to witness a decent market growth during the forecast period
IT and Telecom sector held a significant market share in 2019 as organizations operating in this sector are implementing desktop virtualization solutions so as to reduce the high IT infrastructure cost while offering rapid deployment and innovative services. Implementing cloud virtual desktop infrastructure mitigates IT physical and training expenditures while providing simplified and easy access to operational services to the IT staff. Rising demand for a centralized management system with greater flexibility is also escalating the demand for desktop virtualization solutions across the healthcare sector to support the point of care medical services through mobile applications. With a vast customer base, the BFSI industry relies heavily on digitalized networking and data security technology to offer customer-centric services which fuel the demand for desktop virtualization solutions across this sector.
APAC projected to be the fastest-growing regional market
Geographically, the desktop virtualization market is segmented as North America, South America, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific. APAC is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the rapid adoption of cloud computing and the rising number of medium and small enterprises in the region. North America holds significant market share owing to the early adoption of advanced technology across end-use industries supported by the presence of major market players in the region. The growing telework trend in the U.S. is spurring the growth of the desktop virtualization market. Moreover, the growing telehealthcare industry and the adoption of advanced technology to comply with point of care medication is also propelling the market growth of desktop virtualization. According to the American Hospital Association (AHA), 76% of the U.S. hospitals are connected through the use of telecommunication services with outreaching physicians and patients.
The major players covered as a part of this report are Citrix Systems, Inc., VMware, Inc, IBM, NComputing Co. LTD, Dell, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., and NetApp.
