The increase in remote and hybrid work demands Desktop-as-a-Service, or DaaS, to become a priority for organizations. Still, for most organizations during the onset of the pandemic, it meant the difference between being able to work or not being able to work.

MSA Professional Services is a one hundred percent employee-owned operation of engineers, architects, planners, funding experts, surveyors, and environmental experts spread out over seventeen offices across four states. Their focus is on designing and creating communities that improve the quality of neighborhoods and protect the natural environment. Senior Systems Engineer Mike Albitz says, "When COVID-19 started, we were able to provide latency-free desktops to users with substandard home internet connections using IronOrbit. What started as a move to optimize our business operations became a lifesaver for our organization. IronOrbit's INFINITY Workspaces is an invaluable option to keep our company productive during these unprecedented times." Project Background MSA Senior Systems Engineer Mike Albitz was close to signing a deal with a different cloud service provider when he discovered IronOrbit.

Mike Albitz recognized the tremendous advantages offered by IronOrbit's private cloud option. "I especially liked the control IronOrbit's private cloud gives me," Mike says.

Gartner's 2021 Market Guide for Desktop-as-a-Service, recognizes IronOrbit for its focus on significant GPU use cases for information workers and design professionals. Gartner also reports on IronOrbit's proprietary automation capabilities and management interface, allowing clients to operate and control their DaaS environment.

Mike Albitz led a series of proof of concept drills with the IronOrbit INFINITY team when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out. The lockdown, and subsequent stay-at-home mandate, escalated the whole process. Originally planned as a 17-office migration that would happen in phases over time occurred much more quickly.
