TABLE OF CONTENT

Work anywhere, on any device, with a secure and consistent personal desktop. Keep company data safe in the cloud, not on vulnerable endpoints. Scale up or down instantly, with predictable costs and performance. Dizzion Cloud PC on IBM Cloud VPC simplifies IT with centrally managed cloud desktops that are built for hybrid work.

**Linking back to our foundational perspective in "Built for Choice, Not Conformity: Dizzion Cloud PC Reimagines EUC", this post takes the next step—introducing IBM Cloud VPC support while reinforcing the platform’s core promise: simplicity, flexibility, and choice without compromise.

Reimagining EUC: The Core Principles That Guide Cloud PC

In "Built for Choice, Not Conformity," we highlighted how Dizzion Cloud PC delivers both full-featured DaaS and streamlined Cloud PC, all from the same control plane, admin interface, and flexible credit model, supporting teams to operate in whichever mode they need, without lock-in or unnecessary complexity.

Key values from that post that still drive our mission:

  • Dizzion Cloud PC = Windows PC in the cloud that feels local and runs in a browser; no heavyweight agents or setup is required. Easy!
  • Flat-rate, predictable pricing, strong enterprise security, simplified management (centralized image deployment, personalization, network integration), Windows 11 & Microsoft 365 support.
  • Built on an enterprise-grade, cloud-agnostic platform with global scalability, powered by Dizzion’s own technology stack (independent of Microsoft). It features integrated DEX observability and analytics through Dizzion Overwatch, managed OS updates, and extends with solutions such as Remote Management & Monitoring (RMM), SIEM/XDR, and more.
  • Cloud choice without compromise. Our proprietary technology stack (broker, image deployment, IdP integration, Frame Remoting Protocol, Streaming Gateway) ensures consistency across multiple providers, supported by two independent backplanes for compliance and regulation. There is no Microsoft monoculture, no lock-in, just choice without complexity.

New: Dizzion Cloud PC on IBM Cloud VPC

With support for IBM Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), we’re adding a powerful new option to our Cloud PC arsenal. Here’s why it matters:

  • Expanded multi-cloud strategy: With Dizzion Cloud PC, we deliver, manage, and integrate the infrastructure for Cloud PC workload VMs for our customers and partners. With today's new release, Dizzion Cloud PC runs on AWS Workspaces Core Bundles and IBM Cloud VPC.  

Dizzion DaaS customers can bring their own environments across AWS (EC2, Workspaces Core Bundles, Managed Instances), Azure, GCP, IBM Cloud VPC, and Nutanix, supporting customers in whichever cloud best aligns with policy, performance, or procurement goals.

  • Data sovereignty & compliance: IBM’s footprint in financial services and healthcare adds an option where regulated workloads demand IBM Cloud residency. Also, Windows 11 and Microsoft 365 are fully supported on Dizzion Cloud PC powered by IBM Cloud VPC.
  • Network integration: Desktops can run in the same VPC as your apps, eliminating cross-cloud traffic and reducing latency compared to split architectures.

Business Value: Why Cloud PC Delivers More Than Technology

Cloud PC delivers business value that goes far beyond the underlying technology. Organizations gain cost predictability and control through flat-rate pricing, which minimizes billing disputes and budget overruns, while Dizzion Flex Credits simplify procurement by eliminating SKU sprawl.

IT teams benefit from reduced operational overhead: customers report spending fewer admin hours on patching and updates thanks to Dizzion-managed updates, and a single management console for ease and robust management, including DEX Observability & Analytics with Dizzion Overwatch.

Customers also improve their risk profile. Because data never leaves the cloud, endpoint risk is drastically reduced since there is no data on the endpoint, and IBM Cloud’s compliance certifications further strengthen regulated workload postures.

Cloud PC drives agility and workforce flexibility. Contractor onboarding times shrink from weeks to hours, and seasonal scaling saves customers by avoiding stranded hardware.

Finally, Dizzion enables strategic multi-cloud choice. With coverage across AWS, Azure, GCP, Nutanix, and IBM Cloud, organizations avoid vendor lock-in and can align cloud decisions with regional compliance requirements, AI initiatives, or pricing leverage — ensuring technology strategy serves business strategy.

Use Case Spotlight: Why Dizzion Cloud PC on IBM Cloud VPC Matters

  1. Financial Services & Insurance
  • Deploy Cloud PCs in the same IBM Cloud VPC as banking or risk apps.
  • Eliminates cross-cloud hops, reducing latency for trading desks.
  1. Healthcare & Life Sciences
  • Combine IBM’s HIPAA/GDPR certifications with Dizzion’s stack.
  • Example: Radiology workloads accessed securely without moving imaging data out of IBM Cloud.
  1. Engineering & AI/ML Workloads
  • GPU Cloud PCs support engineering and AI inference in LAN and WAN network-constrained scenarios. Run Applications close to the data.
  • Engineers can spin up environments without shipping expensive workstations.
  1. Global Enterprises with Multi-Cloud Strategies
  • Standardize on one Dizzion platform while using different cloud regions regionally.
  • Example: AWS in the US, IBM Cloud in the EU — same console, same UX, same procurement, consistent management.

The Competitive Edge

Gartner Critical Capabilities highlights how Virtual Desktop solutions perform against specific customer use cases: Remote Worker, High Security and compliance, High Performance, Custom Enterprise Architecture, and On-Premises/Hybrid. Dizzion ranked in the Top three across four of the five use cases, ahead of Microsoft and Amazon Web Services (AWS).  

Citrix and Omnissa may bring larger, legacy feature sets, but more isn’t always better. Decades of accumulated add-ons can introduce complexity for both users and IT.

Dizzion’s top three placements prove that focus wins. It shows you don’t need decades of baggage to deliver what matters: a platform rich in the features customers use, with simplicity that makes it easier for users to love, IT to manage, and finance to approve.  

Dizzion is unique in combining:

  • Both DaaS and Cloud PC are delivered from the same control plane.
  • DaaS multi-cloud support (AWS, Azure, GCP, Nutanix IBM Cloud VPC): Cloud PC multi-cloud support with AWS and IBM Cloud VPC, and more to come.
  • DaaS is Pay as You Go, and Cloud PC is a predictable flat-rate pricing; both can be used with Flex Credits.
  • Frame Remoting Protocol performance has been proven to deliver a great user experience in LAN and WAN conditions.
  • Modern and integrated, browser first, cloud native, with integrated services such as Dizzion Overwatch (Observability and Analytics) and Managed OS updates.
  • Subscription and Services with DaaS, Cloud PC Core, and Cloud PC Complete

Final Thoughts

With IBM Cloud VPC support, Dizzion Cloud PC strengthens its position as a visionary in the DaaS market with a flexible and predictable Cloud PC platform. It allows users to work from any device, anywhere, at any time, with predictable costs, simplified management, easy procurement, and a consistent user experience.
