Wanova Receives $13 Million in Funding

Wanova, a startup that is in the field of desktop virtualization, recently announced that it received $13 million in funding. The funding for the San Jose headquartered company comes courtesy of Opus Capital, Carmel Ventures, Greylock Partners.

To address the quickly growing market of desktop virtualization, Wanova has launched Distributed Desktop Virtualization. This innovative architecture aids in managing, supporting and protecting the process.

Ilan Kessler says that Wanova's Distributed Desktop Virtualization is good news for both IT managers and end-users.

Said Kessler: "IT managers face significant challenges to increase control, ensure compliance and reduce the operational costs of their desktop infrastructure. At the same time, they are tasked with optimizing the end-user experience. Wanova redefines distributed desktop management, so IT has the control they need, and end-users have the productivity they want."

A forecast showed that in 2008, there were 300,000 hosted virtual desktop licenses. Within five years, that number could grow to 50 million.
