VirtuaDesk comes as a packaged offering delivered as an integrated software-hardware platform. A Wipro-developed self-service portal helps users select and provision required applications and desktops. Features include an App Store, Catalog, and menu-driven administration to define authorization and access.

VirtuaDesk is available as an on-premise or off-site private cloud deployment. For on-premise deployments, organizations receive VirtuaDesk through a pre-configured appliance that comes with fully-integrated hardware and software.

"VirtuaDesk is a packaged offering that includes Wipro IP and Wipro services, combined with partner technologies," said Shaji Farooq, senior vice president, Advanced Technologies and Go-To-Market Transformation, Wipro. "VirtuaDesk represents a flagship and differentiated offering from Wipro's cloud-based Workplace Transformation Suite that we intend to expand over time."

VirtuaDesk further leverages desktop virtualization technologies from Citrix, and Microsoft. VirtuaDesk uses HDX technology in Citrix XenDesktop. The solution relies on Microsoft Hyper-V for running the Windows desktop in guest virtual machines, and incorporates Microsoft's infrastructure management software.
