Benefits
Cloud desktops bring tremendous advantages to businesses delivering live, instructor-led training. The true value shines through when you run IT courses for attendees spread across various locations.
An increasing number of organisations are also turning to DaDesktop for local, instructor-led training, because it makes it so simple to pre-install and set up complex software, then rapidly duplicate the setup onto dozens or even hundreds of other cloud desktops.
Here’s why trainers, learners, and organisations pick DaDesktop for their training needs and the advantages they see.
Organizations (companies, learning institutions, government)
-
Economical
- DaDesktop works out far more affordable than comparable cloud machines from AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
- Because DaDesktop is designed for short-term cloud desktop use, not long-term hosting, it can offer a much simpler and cheaper pricing structure.
-
Scalable
- Businesses rely on DaDesktop to run IT training for large groups, easily duplicating a pre-configured cloud desktop for over 50 attendees at once, seamlessly.
- DaDesktop servers can store thousands of virtual machine images at any moment, so you can handle far more learners than a standard classroom.
-
Rapid
- DaDesktop lets you launch cloud desktops in seconds at the start of a session and shut them down just as swiftly when it’s over.
- Cloning a DaDesktop cloud desktop is over 100 times faster than spinning up an AWS public cloud instance or setting up a classroom workstation.
