Nerdio, a platform designed to simplify how to distribute and manage Microsoft Cloud Technologies, raised $ 500 million in Series C funding.
Startup, headquartered in Chicago, has four times since the B round two years ago, and has been firmly in the unicorn area, but the company will not reveal a specific evaluation.
Joseph Landes, the chief profit manager of Nerdio, to TechCrunch, “We are on the north of $ 1 billion, but we do not disclose a specific evaluation.
Nerdio was spun off by the “IT-AS-A-SERVICE” company called Adar Back in 2020, and ADAR fell to Private Equity OnerHipHing, while Nerdio was a dedicated cloud management service provider for customers, including Paypal, Sony and COMCAST.
Nerdio is aimed at companies that want to optimize cloud infrastructure deployment and cost. The Nerdio Manager of Enterprise helps the company to manage the business of Microsoft’s Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows Applications in Windows Applications. It not only automates many tasks related to virtual desktop management, such as cloud infrastructure and user provision, and application distribution, as well as cost optimization such as automatic scale resources that match demand.
In the case of the first ground, the virtual desktop is a computer environment that runs on a remote server instead of a physical computer, and the user can access all apps, files and configuration of all devices through the Internet. Nerdio promotes a more modern cloud native approach to traditional legacy players, such as Citrix, which began before the cloud computing revolution began.
This is especially appropriate when millions of people accept remote and hybrid work environments.
LANDES is complex and expensive to manage the cloud environment, so many professional technical expertise and costly jail tools are required.
Previously, Nerdio raised a $ 117 million Series B trench three years later after raising the $ 8 million series A round in 2020. Nerdio recently held a US growth capital firm GENERALANTIC with US growth capital firm General Atlantic for $ 500 million in cash.
Nerdio did not identify what the ownership of investors’ oaths is, but the founders said, “We are maintaining a significant stake.”
