Overall Satisfaction with Azure Virtual Desktop

We leverage AVD for all non-persistent desktops, this allows us to follow our cloud first strategy, this is leveraged in US-East region and support users globally.

Pros

  • easy setup
  • multiple configuration options
  • minimal latency

Cons

  • Capacity issues in specific regions
  • Cost between different cpu options
  • can be buggy at times
  • AVD has allowed us to move additional applications to the cloud
  • AVD supports our organization globally running out of US-East
  • AVD has a better ROI now that Broadcom has changed pricing model to per core.
AVD has performed well for us and allowed us to migrate away from Citrix.
