A cloud desktop, or desktop as a service (DaaS), offers a virtual desktop environment hosted in the cloud. Users access their desktops and applications online, enabling work from any device. This setup ensures consistent and secure user experience, managed by the service provider to reduce IT workload.
The distinction between a hosted desktop and a cloud desktop lies in their infrastructure and deployment. A hosted desktop typically involves a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) managed on servers either by the organization’s IT department or a third party, necessitating substantial investments. In contrast, a cloud desktop is a VDI on cloud infrastructure, providing flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness as a service model. Cloud desktops enable easy scaling based on demand without infrastructure concerns, making them more manageable than traditional hosted desktops.
The cost of cloud desktops varies based on the provider, service level, and business requirements. Factors like the number of users, applications, storage, and processing influence pricing, typically on a per-user, per-month subscription model. Costs can range between $20 to over $100 per user monthly. Besides subscription fees, consider savings on IT expenses. With customizable plans, cloud desktops offer flexibility and scalability tailored to your needs.
Cloud desktops minimize the need for on-site IT management as the cloud-based infrastructure is expertly maintained externally. Although user management and network-specific tasks may still require on-site support, the cloud provider handles software updates, security, and hardware maintenance. This shift reduces the reliance on on-site IT support, enabling internal teams to focus on strategic initiatives over routine maintenance.
Cloud desktops provide businesses with flexibility, accessibility, and remote work support. Users can access desktops and applications from any device with internet, boosting productivity. Scalability allows quick adjustments to IT resources. Enhanced security in secure data centers reduces data risks. Cost savings from reduced hardware investments and IT management burdens enable resource allocation efficiency for core activities.
