Nerdio Manager

Nerdio Manager is a cloud management platform designed to simplify the deployment, management, and optimization of Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 environments. Built specifically for IT professionals and managed service providers, Nerdio transforms complex Azure infrastructure management into an intuitive, automated experience that reduces costs and accelerates time to value.

The platform offers two main products: Nerdio Manager for Enterprise, designed for IT teams managing their own organization's virtual desktop infrastructure, and Nerdio Manager for MSP, which enables service providers to deploy and manage multi-tenant virtual desktop environments at scale. Both versions provide a unified management console that abstracts Azure complexity while maintaining full access to underlying cloud resources.

Nerdio's intelligent auto-scaling capabilities are among its most powerful features, automatically adjusting compute resources based on user demand patterns, schedules, and real-time metrics. This cost optimization engine can reduce Azure consumption by 50-80% compared to always-on virtual machines, while the platform's Reserved Instance management helps organizations maximize savings on committed workloads. Built-in analytics provide visibility into usage patterns, costs, and performance to support ongoing optimization.

Deployment automation streamlines the provisioning process, enabling IT teams to deploy complete AVD environments in hours rather than weeks. Nerdio handles the creation of host pools, session hosts, networking, storage, and FSLogix profile containers with pre-built templates and guided workflows. Image management capabilities include automated golden image creation, Windows updates, and application installation through integrations with Microsoft Endpoint Manager and third-party tools.

For MSPs, the multi-tenant architecture provides a single pane of glass to manage hundreds of customer environments efficiently. Unified billing integration, white-label portals, and delegated administration enable service providers to deliver virtual desktop services profitably while maintaining customer isolation and security. The platform integrates with popular PSA and RMM tools to streamline operations and billing reconciliation.

Security is built into every layer, with support for Azure security controls, conditional access integration, and compliance reporting. Nerdio maintains SOC 2 Type II certification and enables customers to meet regulatory requirements for data residency, encryption, and access control.
