Cutting Through the Endpoint Chaos - What’s New. What’s Next. What Works.
Hi, I’m Dan Bowker, Cloud Endpoint Solutions Lead at Phoenix Software and a Microsoft MVP for Windows 365. I help organizations rethink how they manage devices, desktops, and user experience in a world of cloud and AI-powered endpoints.
This blog is where I share real-world insights, explore Microsoft public previews, and offer practical guidance on what’s coming next in the cloud endpoint space.
Outside of tech? Lifelong Newcastle United supporter and a massive Boston sports fan, following the Sox and Bruins from afar!
“Daniel’s contributions this year have been nothing short of transformative. What sets Daniel apart is his ability to bring people together. His technical acumen, strategic insight, and commitment to customer success make him a trusted collaborator and a true force multiplier.”
