Hi all,
I’m looking for feedback from sysadmins who have real experience with VDI in production.
I work for a large media company , and there’s a plan to migrate a significant number of users to VDI by 2027. We have an internal discussion about this tomorrow, so I’d like to get some honest opinions.
For those running VDI at scale:
- Do you feel it was worth it overall?
- What were the biggest challenges (performance, cost, user experience)?
- Which use cases worked well, and which didn’t?
- If you had to do it again, would you still go with VDI?
Also, more generally:
- Is VDI still growing, or are companies moving away from it toward other solutions?
Context: mix of office users and some heavier media-related workloads.
Appreciate any real-world feedback — especially lessons learned.
