Expanded OpenCloud services deliver secure desktops and workload mobility with predictable economics and greater control.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Feb. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — US Signal, a leading digital infrastructure provider and portfolio company of Igneo Infrastructure Partners, announces the expansion of its OpenCloud platform with two new integrated services: OpenCloud Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) and SyncSafe Replication. These additions strengthen OpenCloud as a flexible, enterprise-ready cloud platform designed to support modern infrastructure, end-user computing, and workload mobility.
OpenCloud was built to give customers choices to fit their needs, including optionality in architecture, economics, and how workloads are deployed and protected. With the addition of DaaS and SyncSafe Replication, US Signal enables organizations to layer high-value services on top of OpenCloud, extending its role beyond core infrastructure to support secure desktop delivery and resilient, platform-agnostic replication.
“Organizations want more control over how and where their workloads run, without being forced into rigid platforms or long-term licensing constraints,” said David Humes, Vice President of Product Development at US Signal. “By expanding OpenCloud with Desktop-as-a-Service and SyncSafe Replication, we’re giving customers practical, production-ready services that deliver flexibility, security, and predictable economics.”
OpenCloud Desktop-as-a-Service: Secure, Managed Virtual Desktops for Business-Critical Applications
OpenCloud DaaS, powered by Inuvika’s OVD Enterprise, delivers a fully managed virtual desktop and application platform that supports both Windows and Linux environments. The solution enables organizations to securely deliver business-critical applications and desktops to users anywhere, while maintaining centralized control over access, data, and performance.
Designed for hybrid and distributed workforces, OpenCloud DaaS removes the complexity of traditional VDI by combining enterprise-grade desktop delivery with US Signal’s secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure.
Key benefits of OpenCloud DaaS include:
- Centralized control and security for sensitive business applications and data
- Rapid scalability to support employees, contractors, and growth initiatives
- Optimized performance delivered from US Signal’s geographically redundant cloud environment
- Predictable, consumption-based pricing that reduces capital expense and operational overhead
- Fully managed delivery, backed by US Signal’s 24/7/365 support
For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), OpenCloud DaaS provides a secure, repeatable way to deliver application-centric desktops to customers while simplifying operations and maintaining consistent policy enforcement.
“OpenCloud DaaS allows our MSPs to run their customers’ business applications in a highly secure, controlled environment without the complexity of managing traditional VDI infrastructure,” said Jim Intoccio, VP of Indirect Sales. “It gives them confidence that data stays protected, access is tightly managed, and performance is consistent, while giving them the flexibility to scale as their customers’ needs change.”
SyncSafe Replication: Flexible, Platform-Agnostic Workload Mobility
US Signal also announced SyncSafe Replication, an agent-based replication service powered by OpenText Availability technology. SyncSafe is designed to move and protect virtual workloads across environments with minimal complexity, supporting any-to-any replication between diverse platforms.
Unlike replication tools tied to a single hypervisor or ecosystem, SyncSafe is platform-agnostic. While OpenCloud is a natural destination due to its cost efficiency and tight integration with US Signal services, SyncSafe enables customers to replicate workloads across on-premises, private cloud, and third-party environments as their infrastructure strategies evolve.
Key features of SyncSafe Replication include:
- Any-to-any replication across heterogeneous virtual environments
- Agent-based architecture for maximum flexibility
- Managed or unmanaged service options
- Flat-rate, per-VM pricing
- Improved operational resilience and workload availability
“SyncSafe Replication gives customers the freedom to protect and move workloads without being locked into a single platform,” said Daven Winans, SVP of Engineering & Innovation. “That flexibility is critical as organizations modernize their environments and reevaluate long-term infrastructure decisions.”
Extending OpenCloud as a Flexible Alternative in a Changing Market
With the addition of Desktop-as-a-Service and SyncSafe Replication, OpenCloud evolves into a services-enabled cloud platform that supports infrastructure, desktops, and workload mobility, without proprietary lock-in. This approach aligns with growing demand from enterprises and service providers seeking modern, cost-effective alternatives as virtualization and desktop licensing models continue to shift.
The expansion of OpenCloud underscores US Signal’s continued investment in delivering secure, flexible cloud solutions that adapt to how businesses operate today, and how they plan for the future.
