Nerdio Surpasses $100 Million in Annual Recurring Revenue as Enterprises Shift to Microsoft Cloud
CHICAGO, June 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nerdio, the automated end-user computing (EUC) management platform transforming how organizations deploy and manage Microsoft Cloud technologies, today announced that it has surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR), reaching this mark in just over five years. The milestone underscores Nerdio's rapid ascent as enterprises seek easier, more cost-effective ways to manage Microsoft Azure, Windows 365, and Intune environments at scale. The achievement comes just months after Nerdio's $500 million Series C funding round, which propelled the company's valuation past $1 billion. 'Enterprises are quickly moving from legacy VDI to cloud-based solutions—but managing Microsoft Cloud technologies at scale isn't easy,' said Vadim Vladimirskiy, Co-Founder and CEO of Nerdio. 'That complexity has created a huge opportunity for Nerdio. By automating the hard parts of cloud management, we're helping IT teams cut costs, move faster, and do more with less.' Over the past year, Nerdio has added more than 400 new enterprise customers and now serves over 15,000 organizations across 50+ countries. Global brands, including Chevron, Kraft Heinz, Setfords, Sage, and more rely on Nerdio to manage and scale their Microsoft Cloud environments. Nerdio automates the deployment and management of Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, and Intune—eliminating manual work like provisioning virtual machines, setting policies, and managing user access. Its robust automation engine also helps organizations right-size their cloud usage, optimize spend, and ensure policy compliance across environments. Nerdio's growing portfolio of AI capabilities is further transforming how IT teams manage Microsoft Cloud services. With AI-driven recommendations, proactive issue detection, and intelligent scripting support, Nerdio makes it easier to identify inefficiencies, resolve issues faster, and streamline operations without requiring deep Azure expertise. Achieving $100 million in ARR is just the latest of many major milestones for Nerdio. Over the past year, the company has: Raised $500 million in Series C funding and achieved unicorn status. Won the 2024 Microsoft Americas Partner of the Year award. Influenced more than $350 million of Microsoft revenue. Launched over 20 product releases while integrating AI into all its offerings. 'We built Nerdio to help enterprises scale efficiently—and we've followed that same playbook ourselves,' said Joseph Landes, Co-Founder and CRO.

Microsoft is phasing out its Remote Desktop app in May
The Remote Desktop app for Windows is (almost) dead; long live the Windows app. Microsoft said on Monday that its legacy Remote Desktop client, which has already been replaced on other platforms, will no longer be supported on Windows after May 27, 2025. But you aren't losing any functionality here. You can still do tech support for your parents using built-in Windows functionality or the modern Windows app, which is somehow both the simplest and most confusing naming convention Microsoft's marketing team could have mustered. "Starting May 27, 2025, the Remote Desktop app for Windows from the Microsoft Store will no longer be supported or available for download and installation," Microsoft's Hilary Braun wrote on its Windows IT Pro Blog. "Users must transition to Windows App to ensure continued access to Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop and Microsoft Dev Box." The company says connections to Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop and Microsoft Dev Box via the Remote Desktop app from the Microsoft Store will be blocked in the Remote Desktop app on the app's expiration date of May 27. For all other users, it will continue working but will no longer be supported. Increasing the confusion, Windows has a built-in Remote Desktop Connection app that will remain the only way to use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections after May 27. But Microsoft will eventually incorporate that into the Windows app. As notes, Microsoft warned that it would eventually replace the Remote Desktop with the Windows app when the operating system's namesake app launched last fall. The new app even arrived as an update to the Remote Desktop client on Apple's App Store. As for the, uh, interestingly named Windows app, the company likely chose that branding because it wants to move Windows increasingly to the cloud. Its Windows 365 service, introduced in 2021, even lets you stream a virtual version of the OS from any device. So, calling the unified app used to access cloud and remote PCs "Windows app" seems maybe slightly less bizarre from that angle. Still, a Reddit thread from the Windows app's September launch held some entertaining reactions from the company's fans. "Microsoft needs to collect all the staff responsible for naming or renaming their products in the past 15 years and shoot them into the sun," u/AlignedHurdle posted. Meanwhile, u/Shoddy_Eye7866 seized an opportunity to use the Xzibit meme: "Yo dawg, I heard you like Windows, so I took Windows App and put in your Windows so you can Windows while you Windows."
