The Office Has Escaped the Office
VMware Workspace ONE began with a simple nuisance: work escaped the desktop, but IT’s controls did not. Now owned by Omnissa, it tries to make every device - from a nurse’s iPhone to a supermarket freezer scanner - manageable without making the worker feel managed.
Omnissa
Omnissa is an independent digital work platform company spun out of VMware's End-User Computing business after KKR's roughly $4 billion acquisition closed on July 1, 2024. Led by CEO Shankar Iyer, it builds the autonomous workspace: a unified platform spanning Workspace ONE (unified endpoint management), Omnissa Horizon (virtual desktops and apps / DaaS), and Omnissa Intelligence (analytics and digital employee experience), increasingly stitched together with trusted, AI-driven automation. The company serves more than 26,000 customers worldwide, including a majority of the Fortune 500, with about $1.5 billion in annual recurring revenue and roughly 4,000 employees.
