Omnissa Dominates Gartner UEM Rankings with AI-Powered Platform

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – January 15, 2026 – Omnissa has secured a commanding position in the enterprise technology landscape, earning the top ranking across all four use cases in Gartner's 2026 Critical Capabilities for Endpoint Management Tools report. This achievement accompanies its designation as a Leader in the inaugural Gartner Magic Quadrant™ for Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) Tools, cementing the company's status as a formidable force in the digital workspace market.

The detailed Gartner analysis, which evaluated 16 different vendors, highlights the exceptional performance of Omnissa's flagship product, Workspace ONE UEM. The platform's highest accolade came in the Autonomous Endpoint Management use case, where it achieved a near-perfect score of 4.95 out of 5.0. This particular recognition underscores a significant shift in the industry towards intelligent, self-managing IT systems, a domain where Omnissa is now a benchmark for excellence.

“Today’s organizations need endpoint management that is unified, intelligent, and built to operate at scale,” said Bharath Rangarajan, senior vice president of products and technology alliances at Omnissa, in a statement. “With Omnissa Workspace ONE, we’re uniting endpoint management, intelligence and automation, and security on a truly unified and autonomous platform to help organizations secure and simplify digital work. We believe this recognition reflects how our AI-driven platform approach to UEM drives greater value for IT and better experiences for employees.”

The Rise of the Autonomous Workspace

The top score in autonomous management is not merely a technical achievement; it represents the validation of a strategic vision. The modern enterprise is grappling with an explosion of devices—from laptops and mobile phones to rugged frontline hardware and IoT sensors—all operating in a complex hybrid work environment. This distributed ecosystem creates immense challenges for IT departments tasked with provisioning, managing, and securing every endpoint.

Omnissa’s Workspace ONE UEM directly addresses this complexity by leveraging artificial intelligence and advanced automation. The platform is designed to move IT operations from a reactive, ticket-based model to a proactive, self-healing paradigm. By incorporating Omnissa Intelligence, the system can analyze vast amounts of telemetry data to identify patterns, predict potential issues, and trigger automated remediation actions before they impact employee productivity. This includes capabilities for self-configuration, self-healing, and self-securing actions across the entire digital workspace.

This AI-driven approach automates routine tasks like device provisioning, software patching, and compliance enforcement, freeing up IT personnel to focus on strategic initiatives rather than manual firefighting. The platform's advanced low-code/no-code automation engine further empowers IT teams to build custom workflows, streamlining processes and reducing the potential for human error. For organizations, this translates into enhanced security, reduced operational overhead, and a more resilient IT infrastructure capable of adapting to constant change.

Navigating a Fiercely Competitive Market

Omnissa’s placement as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant is based on its “Completeness of Vision” and “Ability to Execute.” This position is particularly noteworthy given the intense competition in the UEM sector. The report also recognized other major players like Jamf, NinjaOne, and Tanium as Leaders, illustrating the high stakes and rapid innovation defining the market. ManageEngine was noted as a Challenger, indicating a diverse field of solutions available to enterprises.

For Omnissa, this recognition is the latest in a series of strategic milestones. The company, formerly the End-User Computing (EUC) division of VMware, officially launched as an independent entity in mid-2024 following its acquisition by global investment firm KKR from Broadcom for approximately $4 billion. At its launch, the newly independent company reported a substantial $1.5 billion in annual recurring revenue, supported by a global team of 4,000 employees and a base of 26,000 customers.

This UEM leadership builds on a consistent track record of high-level analyst recognition. In 2025, Omnissa was also named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Desktop as a Service (DaaS) and the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Employee Experience Management Tools. This trifecta of leadership positions across UEM, DaaS, and DEX validates the company's holistic platform strategy, which aims to provide a single, integrated solution for the entire digital work lifecycle.

Unifying Technology for a Better Employee Experience

Beyond the technical capabilities and market positioning, Omnissa's success speaks to a crucial business imperative: improving the Digital Employee Experience (DEX). In an era where talent retention is paramount, a seamless and productive technology experience is no longer a luxury but a necessity. A clunky, unreliable, or insecure digital environment can lead to employee frustration, decreased engagement, and lower productivity.

Workspace ONE UEM is designed to address this by unifying the management of all endpoints, regardless of operating system or ownership model—from corporate-owned Windows and Apple devices to personal Android phones used in a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program. This unified approach simplifies the user experience by providing consistent access to applications and data while maintaining robust security through Zero Trust policies and real-time threat monitoring.

By automating IT support and offering employees a self-service portal for common requests like password resets or app installations, the platform reduces friction and empowers users to resolve minor issues independently. The rich insights gathered from the platform help IT teams proactively enhance performance and reliability, ensuring that the technology serves as an enabler, not a barrier, to doing great work. This focus on a secure, stable, and user-centric experience is critical for organizations looking to thrive in the permanent reality of hybrid work.
