Privately owned Cendio, headquartered in Sweden, was founded in 1992 and operates with approximately 20 employees. The company specializes in enterprise and telecoms software, notably its ThinLinc product. ThinLinc functions as a Linux Remote Desktop Server, enabling organizations globally to publish Linux desktops and applications.
The free server edition of NoMachine 10 ceased availability upon its shipment on August 30, 2026, prompting users to seek alternative solutions. Previously, on August 24, Cendio announced the integration of its ThinLinc product into the Open OnDemand ecosystem. This development followed Cendio's participation as the sole Platinum Sponsor at the Global Open OnDemand Conference (GOOD26), where it presented its vision for interactive high-performance computing. Earlier, on August 21, Cendio released ThinLinc 4.21.0. In July, specifically on July 17, Cendio's ThinLinc established a technology partnership with 10ZiG Technology to simplify secure Linux desktop delivery, combining ThinLinc's Linux Server-Based Computing platform with 10ZiG's purpose-built endpoint hardware and management platform. This partnership and product development unfold as the network security landscape undergoes a rapid shift, with major firewall vendors, including Fortinet with its FortiOS 7.6.3, deprecating legacy SSL VPN tunnel modes, compelling organizations to reconsider their remote access strategies.
