About Droplet Computing
Droplet Computing was founded based on real-life customer feedback, where customers were looking at wanting to deploy any application on any device.
It all started with an idea
We started with an idea to run applications and make them universal across all devices, without reliance on being connected. That materialized with an early prototype running on a Chromebook. However, we soon realized that we needed to look at what is common across all devices, and that commonality is the browser. This resulted in the development of the Droplet Container, a secure, patent-pending container technology that allows you to containerize your applications and deliver them to multiple platforms giving you the choice of device.
The senior management team at Droplet Computing, including Barry Daniels (COO) and Michelle Laverick (CTO), have over 40 years combined experience in delivering end user computing solutions, and cloud computing and before founding Droplet Computing worked for some of the leading vendors and partner in the EUC and cloud space
Founded based on real-life customer feedback
Droplet Computing was founded based on real-life customer feedback, where customers were looking at wanting to deploy any application on any device. Although there are vendors that used this “any app, any device” in their marketing verbiage, there were several caveats to the reality of achieving this. The main one being the need to be online so that the end user would need to connect to some form of VDI or cloud-based desktop and delivery mechanism to have their apps delivered. We felt this was potentially overkill in terms of infrastructure requirements, and what if there was no connection available, or having that connection posed a security risk?
Not having a connection was the real-life scenario that was presented to our founder during a potential 30,000 seat Chromebook roll-out project, that eventually was shelved after one of the customer’s key stake holders couldn’t get on to one of the core business apps. So, it was back to deploying expensive Windows laptops!
