NComputing captures 89 percent of enterprise client device market share in India

INDIA: According to International Data Corp. (IDC), NComputing is the largest provider of enterprise client devices in India. IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Enterprise Client Devices Tracker Q3 2011 shows that nine out of every ten enterprise client devices purchased in India were NComputing.

India is one of the world’s most prolific consumers of thin and terminal clients; and home to some of the world’s largest public and private virtual desktop deployments – most of which are based on NComputing technology.

Manish Sharma, VP, Asia Pacific, NComputing, said: “This latest IDC report reinforces NComputing’s position as the leader in the enterprise client devices market in India - which has been our fastest growing market. NComputing has redefined and revolutionized desktop computing. We lead the market in innovation and solving the desktop computing needs of public, private and education customers throughout India. We intend to expand the market still further through the introduction of new products, by growing our partner and channel base, and by increasing existing and new customer adoption.”

In Q3 2011, NComputing had achieved 200 percent YoY (year-on-year) growth in shipments of its virtual desktop solutions in India. The company has achieved particular success in the education and public sectors, having supplied 60 percent of its solutions in schools throughout India. Thirty percent of sales were to small and mid-sized businesses (SMB), a market that is increasingly turning to virtual desktops as a high performance, low cost desktop computing solution.

Manasi Yadav, market analyst of IDC Centre for Consultancy and Research, said: “Desktop virtualization is now being adopted across all market sectors including education, government, manufacturing and healthcare. NComputing disrupted legacy economics and technology models to put high performance computing into the hands of business users and students at the lowest total cost possible. This is a key driver behind their market growth in India.”
