Some choice highlights are listed below.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23026 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/geographies-survey.webp?909\" alt=\"Azure Virtual desktop survey respondents geographical locations shown on a map\" width=\"850\" height=\"630\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 1: Over 500+ IT professionals worldwide contributed, respondents from most major geographies were well represented<\/div>\n<h2>Interesting Findings about Azure Virtual Desktop Technology<\/h2>\n<h3>1. The Uptake of Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) Technology is Widespread and Fast<\/h3>\n<p>A relative newcomer in the VDI and digital workspace landscape, in the two years since its release in March 2021 it has rapidly gained traction. Our survey found that over 1\/4 of respondents already have AVD deployed in production. Additionally, within 24 months, 58% of the organizations who responded intended to have AVD deployed. Only 5% felt that they did not see a need for AVD technology in their organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly 80% of respondents do not see AVD as being their only digital workspace technology. The full survey investigated trends in AVD usage alongside other technologies such as Citrix CVAD\/VMware on-premises and Cloud Citrix, VMware, and Amazon WorkSpaces alternatives.<\/p>\n<p>More details including anticipated future usage and breakdowns by organization size are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/ebooks\/azure-virtual-desktop-adoption-trends-ebooks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">available in the full report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23027 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Image-02.webp?909\" alt=\"Azure virtual desktop deployment statistics\" width=\"850\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. AVD is Reaching Customers Traditional VDI\/Virtual Desktops Struggled to<\/h3>\n<p>The survey found that Azure Virtual Desktop deployments of all sizes were being undertaken. Overall, we are still early in the AVD adoption cycle. Close to 50% of deployments have less than 250 users.<\/p>\n<p>73% of the AVD deployments have less than 1,000 users. In the medium-sized business market, AVD is competing against Citrix and VMware digital workspace offerings.<\/p>\n<p>With 1\/3 of deployments having less than 100 users, AVD is appealing and accessible to organizations that traditionally are considered too small to adopt on-premises Citrix\/VMware VDI.<\/p>\n<p>We do acknowledge that small deployments may also be larger organizations exploring AVD as an option for the future and it is a trend we will watch for when we next repeat the survey.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23030 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Images-03.webp?909\" alt=\"Size of AVD deployments\" width=\"850\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The full survey contains further details on the use of AVD broken down by use case including standalone AVD, and deployments involving Citrix and VMware used in conjunction with AVD.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23031 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Images-04.webp?909\" alt=\"Pi chart of Omnissa Horizon deployment size - 20% have 10k+ end users, 29% 1-250\" width=\"500\" height=\"700\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 4: The full survey contains breakdowns of AVD usage within different stacks such as Citrix, VMware and standalone AVD. Here the details of deployment scale for VMware based AVD deployments are shown.<\/div>\n<h3>3. Maturity of Virtual Desktop Solutions being Implemented<\/h3>\n<p>The survey revealed a high level of maturity of solution and focus on user experience, with many best practices from VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) being applied. Whether you are building your AVD gold image via Image builder or configuring a virtual machine, optimizing the image, and installing any pre-requisites will make the experience much better for the end-users. The survey revealed that 76% were aware of these benefits and adopting image optimization. Details of the relative popularity of image optimization technologies including Microsoft Virtual Desktop Optimization Tool, VMware OSOT, Citrix Optimizer and BIS-F are contained in the full survey.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23032 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Image-05.webp?88\" alt=\"Azure Virtual Desktop and FSLogix profile management tools by popularity\" width=\"850\" height=\"650\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 5: The survey contains details on profile management technologies real users have adopted and their relative popularity.<\/div>\n<p>We also found that at least 71% are aware of and leveraging profile management. Again, indicating a maturity of solution and focus on user-experience. With FSLogix included with AVD subscriptions this was the most popular choice. The full survey also investigated the use of Office and Profile containers and the choice of both or just one type.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Premium Storage and GPUs (Graphics processing units) are becoming Mainstream for Virtual Desktops<\/h3>\n<p>The survey revealed that many users are adopting and investing in premium technologies that improve the user experience. 62% of organizations are using GPU technologies. This is remarkably high considering the small percent of overall Azure instance types with GPU support. We suspect that organizations have some VMs (Virtual Machines) that are GPU enabled, but not their entire deployment. NVIDIA GPUs were the most frequent choice, but we found significant uptake of AMDs offerings too. Premium storage solutions such as Azure NetApp files are gaining traction.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23034 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Images-06.webp?909\" alt=\"Azure virtual desktop and GPUs\" width=\"850\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 6: Analysis within the survey the uptake in GPU usage was greater in larger deployments<\/div>\n<h3>5. The Most Common Performance Issues and Failures in Azure Virtual Desktop Deployments<\/h3>\n<p>We surveyed the issues users are encountering with their real-world deployments.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23036 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Images-07.webp?909\" alt=\"Graph of user replies to what is biggest challenge in AVD usage - top ranking cost of cloud and the end user experience - both with 22% of respondents saying had problems\" width=\"850\" height=\"650\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 7: Challenges to AVD adoption were investigated.<\/div>\n<p>We also explored the most common issues and errors encountered in current deployments.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23037 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/slow-logon.webp?909\" alt=\"AVD performance complaints\" width=\"850\" height=\"700\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The number one performance issue that respondents face is slow application performance. 47% are struggling with \u201cmy application is slow\u201d complaints. Slow logons and issues with video calls are the next two issues impacting user productivity.<\/p>\n<p>As a number of these issues may not be caused by workspace issues themselves, end-to-end monitoring covering the entire service delivery chain is therefore seen to be particularly important.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Native Azure Virtual Desktop Monitoring Solutions have Problems<\/h3>\n<p>AVD is still a relatively recent technology and the native <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/reduce-azure-monitoring-cost\/\">Azure Monitor solution using Log Analytics<\/a> is still immature with complex pricing. Of those using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/azure-monitor-avd\/\">Azure Monitor<\/a> only 8% stated no pain points in our survey. The most common challenges and concerns were around costs &#8211; concerns about both the expense (30%) but also the uncertainty (30%) as to what those costs will be. Other reported issues included &#8211; Visualization limitations around dashboards, reports and ITSM ticketing integrations and the manual configuration and the lack of out-of-the-box features.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23040 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Images-09.webp?909\" alt=\"Main challenges with Azure Monitor - top issue is cost!\" width=\"850\" height=\"700\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"img_caption\">Figure 9: The full report covers challenges existing AVD user report when implementing a monitoring strategy. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/ebooks\/azure-virtual-desktop-adoption-trends-ebooks\">Download the full report<\/a> to learn of potential issues and ensure your planning covers all eventualities.<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/ebooks\/azure-virtual-desktop-adoption-trends-ebooks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23042 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner.jpg\" alt=\"AVD deployment trends\" width=\"850\" height=\"160\" border=\"0\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner-300x56.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner-768x145.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner-800x151.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner-310x58.jpg 310w, https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/AVD-Survey-Bottom-Banner-140x26.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Please See the Links below for Related Information:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>For information on attending the next AVD TechFest event in person or online \u2013 please see:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/avdtechfest.com\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AVD TechFest 2022 &#8211; AVD TechFest 2021 &#8211; Live in Amsterdam<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/supported-technologies\/azure-virtual-desktop-monitoring-avd\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Azure AVD (Azure Virtual Desktops) Monitoring<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/azure-virtual-desktop-monitoring-avd\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Azure Virtual Desktop Monitoring with Azure Monitor &#8211; Estimating Costs<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/supported-technologies\/azure-monitoring\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Azure Monitoring<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/azure-ad-app-client-secret-certificate-expirations-alerts\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Azure AD Monitoring Tips &amp; Strategies | eG Innovations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/supported-technologies\/microsoft-monitoring\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Microsoft Monitoring: One-Stop Shop for Everything Microsoft<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/product\/technologies\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Other technologies supported by eG Enterprise<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Virtual Desktops on Microsoft Azure with AVD Technology advancements have now made it possible for organizations to adopt virtual desktop technologies in a hassle-free manner, from the cloud using solutions such as AVD (Azure Virtual Desktop).
