Keeping it fast, stable, and affordable once real users depend on it is where most teams struggle. Alex ter Neuzen, Microsoft MVP for Azure, Azure Local, and Azure Virtual Desktop, architects and operates AVD environments at Rapid Circle. He'll cover design, deployment, and real-world operations: the host pool decisions that age well, the FSLogix and storage traps that surface months later, where the 40-70% cost savings actually live, and how AVD on Azure Local changes the picture for sovereignty and edge workloads. Expect an honest comparison with Citrix and Omnissa, not a Microsoft sales pitch. Alex closes with a simple test: if you can't answer "how was logon time yesterday" in 30 seconds, your monitoring isn't ready for production. The team at eG Innovations picks up there with a live demo, showing how to see logon duration, session host health, FSLogix, Azure resources, and application performance in one place, so problems get caught before users feel them. Whether you're planning a new deployment, weighing AVD against Citrix or Omnissa, or optimizing an existing environment, you'll leave with recommendations you can apply the same week. ## Register For Webinar Now By filling out your personal details and signing up, you agree to eG's [privacy policy](https://www.eginnovations.com/company/privacy-policy) and to allow event hosts (eG innovations) to follow up with you. #### Tuesday, 1 September 2026 #### 2 PM GMT, 4 PM CEST # Azure Virtual Desktop: From Best Practices to Peak Performance # A clear and bold heading Deploying Azure Virtual Desktop is only half the journey.

The answer is usually somewhere the workspace tools cannot see: a storage array under pressure, or an authentication path quietly adding seconds to every logon. eG Enterprise monitors every tier from the user session down to storage, across AVD, Citrix, Omnissa Horizon, AWS WorkSpaces and 16+ workspace platforms, and correlates the signals automatically through a patented Root Cause Analysis engine. IT teams get a cause, not a queue of alerts to work through. . Copyright © 2026 eG Innovations. All rights reserved.
