VMware presents its first product, Workstation 1.0, at DEMO 1999. “VMware Brings Freedom of Choice to Your Desktop,” declares The Wall Street Journal, and programmers worldwide delight in the product, allowing users to run multiple operating systems as virtual machines, all on a single PC.
Today, 23 years later, the company is a leading provider of multi-cloud services for all apps, enabling digital innovation with enterprise control. VMware’s multi-cloud, apps, anywhere workspace, networking, and security solutions serve as the digital foundation for over 500,000 customers globally. VMware innovations fundamentally changed IT—and unlocked possibilities for businesses.
The pandemic, in its turn, questioned profoundly the way we work and unlocked new possibilities in this direction, for which VMware was well prepared.
“It’s clear to me that our workforce, workplace, and work practices must be rooted in choice and flexibility. That’s why we’re empowering our employees to choose their own path forward—whether it’s full-time remote work, full-time in-office work, or a hybrid remote/in-person schedule near a VMware office,” says Betsy Sutter, Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer at VMware.
