Case Study: Karbon Homes achieves over 60% Azure Virtual Desktop cost savings with Nerdio

Karbon Homes Reduces Azure Virtual Desktop Costs by over 60% With Nerdio

Karbon Homes, a UK non-profit provider of homes and community services, needed to move off its on‑prem VDI to Azure Virtual Desktop to improve end‑user performance and simplify cloud VDI management. After MSP Trustack recommended Nerdio and demonstrated Nerdio Manager for Enterprise, Karbon Homes chose the Nerdio platform to reduce complexity and better support staff and customers.

Nerdio deployed Nerdio Manager for Enterprise on Karbon’s AVD environment, using features like patented auto‑scaling with pre‑staging, auto‑scale history and analytics, image management, re‑image scheduling, and automated patching to streamline operations. The Nerdio solution now hosts nearly 700 monthly active users and cut Azure Virtual Desktop costs by over 60% (about £10,000 saved per month), while accelerating IT initiatives and reducing admin overhead.
