Written by

In this exclusive VMblog interview from NerdioCon 2025 in Palm Springs, California, VMblog sat down with Vadim Vladimirskiy, CEO and co-founder of Nerdio, to discuss the company's evolution and the future of cloud virtualization.

Vadim shares insights on Nerdio's impressive growth journey, revealing how their "outside-in" innovation approach has been key to their success by prioritizing partner and customer feedback when developing solutions. He explains how Nerdio began within an MSP environment before evolving into the platform it is today.

The conversation covers the changing landscape of cloud VDI, with Vadim predicting significant migration from on-premises solutions to Azure-based platforms over the next few years. He provides clarity on the important distinctions between Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop, explaining that they serve different use cases rather than competing with each other.

Particularly valuable is Vadim's explanation of how Nerdio adds unique value to Windows 365 deployments through cost optimization, enhanced visibility, and automated management capabilities that aren't available natively.

With nearly 800 participants at this year's NerdioCon, the event has grown substantially since its virtual beginnings during the pandemic. Vadim invites IT professionals to attend future events, emphasizing the dual benefits of technical content and community building, including direct access to Microsoft executives and product managers who are shaping the future of these technologies.
