At their NerdioCon event, Nerdio has launched Nerdio Manager for Enterprise version 7.0, a management platform for Microsoft cloud technologies. This new version enhances support for Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop by introducing advanced tools aimed at improving planning, migration, automation, and cost optimization. The update comes in response to the growing demand for better management capabilities as organizations shift to cloud-first computing. CEO Vadim Vladimirskiy emphasized the need for enhanced automation and cost optimization to tackle the challenges faced by IT leaders. The platform now offers intelligent modeling and automated workflows that simplify transitions from on-premises systems. Additionally, it provides enhanced visibility through usage dashboards and integrates with Microsoft Intune for streamlined administration. Users can expect AI-driven recommendations to optimize licensing and prevent overspending, making cloud management more efficient. With this release, Nerdio also introduces updated pricing models to offer greater flexibility for enterprises managing multiple virtual environments.
And at their Empower event, N-able has enhanced its Ecoverse platform to bolster cyber resiliency for Microsoft Cloud users by incorporating Adlumin Breach Prevention for Microsoft 365. This integration addresses the growing threat of identity-based cyberattacks, which target cloud identities rather than traditional endpoints. As cybercriminals increasingly infiltrate organizations through stolen credentials, N-able’s technology employs machine-learning models to monitor user behavior and detect anomalies in real-time. The platform also offers comprehensive solutions for Microsoft 365, including complete backup and recovery, user management, and advanced email security. Disclosure, I’m an N-Able Shareholder.
Why do we care?
Managing cloud costs has been a recurring theme, and providers should begin pitching cloud cost governance and license optimization as services—not one-time setups.
N-Able’s announcement is the next logical step in their acquisition of Adlumin. From full backup to advanced email security and user behavior monitoring, N-able is pushing a stacked Microsoft Cloud security story. Will the market respond?
