Cloud & DaaS Industry Recognition

XTIUM Recognized in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for DaaS for the Fourth Consecutive Year

Technology · Managed Services 4 min read

XTIUM, a global AI-enabled managed services provider delivering secure digital workplaces, managed security, cloud, network, and unified communications solutions, has been recognized in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Desktop as a Service (DaaS) for the fourth straight year. The recognition underscores the company's sustained momentum in a market being reshaped by artificial intelligence and the growing demands of hybrid work.

The milestone arrives at a pivotal moment for the DaaS market. Gartner forecasts that DaaS spending will grow from $4.9 billion in 2026 to $6.5 billion in 2030, and notes that stimulus from AI workloads could accelerate those growth rates even further.

"We feel that XTIUM's DaaS recognition from Gartner provides validation of our long-term strategy, strong roadmap, and our ongoing customer success."

— David Graffia, VP, Cloud Solutions, XTIUM

A Market Reshaped by AI

One of the most striking signals in Gartner's outlook is the projected rise of AI-driven workspaces. Gartner projects that by 2030, 20% of DaaS workspaces will be used by AI agents, not people, to perform work — up from almost zero in 2026. That shift points to a fundamental change in how enterprises will deploy digital workspace infrastructure in the years ahead.

XTIUM believes its recognition reflects alignment with this market movement toward AI-native, autonomous operations and the continued pressure of hybrid work demands. The company's continued investment in DaaS and Managed Cloud solutions is aimed at helping customers accelerate digital workplace modernization while reducing the complexity of managing infrastructure.

"Being named a Visionary in the Magic Quadrant in our opinion reflects our commitment to innovations that help organizations create secure, scalable, and modern digital workspace experiences that prepare them for what's next."

— David Graffia, VP, Cloud Solutions, XTIUM

Fully Managed, Security-First Digital Workplaces

XTIUM delivers vendor-assembled and vendor-managed DaaS globally, including desktop and application virtualization, supported by service centers across North America, Europe, and Asia. The company complements technology from partners such as Citrix, Microsoft Azure, and Omnissa with its own intellectual property for DaaS operations, offering fully managed, complex desktop environments with both CPU and GPU options.

By combining AI and automation, advanced cloud technologies, and governance capabilities into a single fully managed experience, XTIUM enables organizations to focus more on strategic business priorities and less on day-to-day IT operations. Trusted by more than 1,700 mid-size and enterprise companies, the provider positions itself as an accountable, end-to-end partner across the modern digital workplace.
