SlideRocket přináší netradiční řešení pro tvorbu prezentací, které jedinečným způsobem ovlivňuje moderní koncept cloud computingu, spolupráce, sociálních médií a mobility. SlideRocket využívá pro efektivnější tvorbu, předání a sdílení prezentací více než 20 000 zákazníků a 300 000 uživatelů. SlideRocket je vytvořen právě tak, aby využíval veškerých výhod moderního webu a na cloudu založeného modelu práce koncových uživatelů s počítači, který stírá hranice mezi prezentacemi, webovými stránkami a multimediálním obsahem a představuje zásadní posun od klasických počítačových prezentačních řešení. Detaily akvizice nebyly zveřejněny.
Akvizice SlideRocket podporuje vizi VMware o moderní práci koncových uživatelů s počítači, která využívá cloud computing k bezpečnému přístupu k aplikacím a datům prostřednictvím jakéhokoli zařízení, kdekoli a kdykoli to bude uživatel potřebovat. Software pro tvorbu prezentací je vedle e-mailu druhým nejrozšířenějším a nejpoužívanějším firemním softwarem. Dodání tohoto podstatného firemního řešení v moderním, cloudově orientovaném modelu pomůže VMware uvést nový model práce koncových uživatelů s počítači v podnikové oblasti.
