Frequently asked questions
Who runs product and engineering decisions at Dizzion?
Co-founder Robert Green serves as CTO and drives the architectural roadmap, while Steve Prather handles commercial and strategic direction as CEO. Both have been in place since the firm's 2011 founding and remained through the 2022 Frame acquisition from Nutanix.
What compliance frameworks does Dizzion's platform actually cover?
The firm maintains PCI-DSS certification for contact-center workloads and maps its tenant controls to HIPAA and SOC 2 Type II attestation requirements. It is one of relatively few DaaS providers that presents a PCI-compliant virtual desktop without requiring the customer to separately certify the underlying infrastructure stack.
How did the Frame acquisition change Dizzion's product surface?
The January 2022 Frame purchase from Nutanix brought a pure web-client DaaS platform into Dizzion's portfolio, supplementing the firm's original appliance-based VDI model that runs on IBM Cloud and VMware Horizon. Frame runs natively on public cloud and Nutanix HCI, which extended Dizzion's addressable market from purpose-built contact-center deployments into general enterprise desktop-replacement use cases.
Does Dizzion participate in fund commitments or operate as an investment vehicle?
No. Dizzion is an operating company — a managed Desktop-as-a-Service provider — not a fund or family office. Its reference in an Altss profile reflects its relevance as a privately held enterprise-software asset that investors track, not a firm that deploys capital externally.
Which sectors does Dizzion explicitly avoid, and which does it prioritize?
The firm concentrates on contact centers, healthcare delivery organizations, and financial services — verticals where compliance-audit evidence governs the buying decision more heavily than end-user feature comparison. It does not target gaming, creative-pro, or general-purpose consumer desktop streaming, where latency tolerance and GPU density drive a different engineering trade-off.
