AVD From Design to Daily Operations

AVD Architecture & Design

Host pool design, session host sizing, FSLogix profile configuration, and network topology built for your user types, application mix, and compliance requirements.

Learn More

Nerdio Management

BWT manages AVD with Nerdio Manager for MSPs — autoscaling, cost optimization, and simplified management that reduces AVD operating costs by 40 to 60 percent versus manual management.

Learn More

AVD Security Configuration

Conditional Access for AVD, session host hardening, screen capture protection, copy-paste restrictions, and Defender for Endpoint on session hosts — security built for cloud desktop environments.

Learn More

Image Management

Gold image design, application packaging, and update automation using Azure Image Builder and Nerdio. Users always get a consistent, up-to-date desktop environment.

Learn More

Performance Monitoring

Session performance, user experience scores, and host pool capacity monitored continuously. Performance issues identified and resolved before users submit helpdesk tickets.

How BWT Deploys and Manages AVD

AVD deployments that are not sized, configured, and managed properly produce poor user experience and unexpected costs. BWT does the architecture and the operations.

1
Design & Sizing

User persona analysis defines session host sizing, storage requirements, and network topology. Application compatibility tested. Nerdio autoscaling parameters set for cost-efficient operation.

2
Deployment & Migration

Host pools deployed. FSLogix profiles configured. Applications packaged and published. User access provisioned through Entra ID groups. Migration from existing desktop platform executed.

3
Operations & Optimization

Daily monitoring of session performance and user experience. Nerdio autoscaling managed to balance cost and availability. Monthly AVD cost and performance reports.

AVD Without Nerdio Is Like Azure Without Cost Management

Azure Virtual Desktop's native management tools are functional but limited. Nerdio Manager for MSPs adds autoscaling that turns host pool capacity up during business hours and down overnight — reducing compute costs by 40 to 60 percent. It also adds simplified image management, cost dashboards, and automation that makes AVD operationally manageable. BWT manages AVD with Nerdio because the cost savings and operational efficiency are significant.

BWT deployed our AVD environment with Nerdio autoscaling. Our Azure compute spend for AVD is 52 percent lower than our original Azure Pricing Calculator estimate.

AVD Expertise Built on Real Deployments

Nerdio Certified Partner

BWT is a certified Nerdio partner with direct Nerdio technical support and access to the Nerdio MSP program. This expertise is why BWT's AVD deployments work and why the costs stay controlled.

Security Configured for Cloud Desktops

AVD security configuration is different from traditional endpoint security. BWT configures Conditional Access, session host hardening, and screen capture protection specifically for cloud desktop environments.

Image Management Automation

Gold image management without automation creates a maintenance burden. BWT uses Azure Image Builder and Nerdio to automate image updates — ensuring users always have current, patched desktops without manual administrator effort.

The BWT Standard
AVD is powerful and complex. The design and ongoing management determine whether it delivers on its promise.

BWT has deployed AVD for organizations from 25 to 1,000 users across healthcare, financial services, nonprofits, and manufacturing. Nerdio management, security configuration, and ongoing operations are all within standard scope.

What Organizations Ask About Azure Virtual Desktop

Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is Microsoft’s cloud-hosted virtual desktop infrastructure. It delivers full Windows 11 desktops and individual applications from Azure, accessible from any device including thin clients, iPads, and personal computers.
Nerdio is an AVD management platform that adds autoscaling, cost optimization, image management, and simplified administration on top of AVD. BWT uses Nerdio because it typically reduces AVD compute costs by 40 to 60 percent compared to native AVD management.
AVD is priced based on Azure compute for session hosts, storage for user profiles, and network egress. Nerdio autoscaling significantly reduces compute costs by scaling host pools down when users are not active. BWT provides detailed cost modeling before deployment.
Yes. AVD keeps data in Azure rather than on endpoint devices, which is a significant compliance advantage for HIPAA, FINRA, and other regulated environments. BWT configures the security controls required for your specific compliance framework.
In most cases, yes. BWT migrates Citrix and RDS environments to AVD regularly. Application compatibility assessment is performed before migration. Most line-of-business applications run on AVD without modification.

Secure Cloud Desktops for Every User, Every Location

BWT will design an AVD environment for your organization — sized for your users, secured for your compliance requirements, and managed with Nerdio for cost efficiency.
