Dell manages 9.5 million calls each year through its 12 service desk centers for North American clients and eight additional service desks for global clients. Dell supports an estimated 2.2 million North American end users and 218,000 client mobile devices. Dell's offerings range from a complete desktop-as-a-service solution to build-your-own and a custom virtual desktop approach.
