A hosted virtual desktop (HVD) is a "Desktop as a Service" (DaaS) where the platform and applications are hosted on the service provider's server. A desktop instance creates a virtual machine on the host's server, from which an end user may access the operating system and applications ideally in a way indistinguishable from if they were installed locally on the end user's machine.
Hosted virtual desktops have a number of benefits for the businesses that use them. The first is that the business doesn’t have to handle storage and security. This is particularly valuable for smaller businesses that take in a lot of sensitive data but don’t have the resources to store or secure it locally. Additionally, hosted virtual desktops allow users to access their desktop anywhere since the entire solution is cloud-based.
The following features are common in hosted virtual desktop solutions:
Cloud desktop access
Managed storage
Managed backup
Managed upgrades
High availability
When selecting a virtual desktop solution, you should consider what data features are most important to you. The biggest differentiator between each solution will be storage and security features. If you aren’t storing sensitive data, you may be able to go with a cheaper solution, while if you need to meet high compliance requirements, a more expensive hosted virtual desktop solution may be appropriate.
You should also consider how the storage solutions offered by each virtual desktop option integrate with your existing IT infrastructure.
Pricing for hosted virtual desktops is based on a per user per month basis. Businesses should expect to pay at least $10.00 per user per month, with that rate increasing as more features, or higher security are needed.
