Ruven Naidoo - PeerSpot reviewer
Cost-effective and simple to use, full support that is excellent
More training videos, especially on how-to, with step-by-step guides. Full hands-on labs for different environments like Angular would be really good. I am planning to make a video soon, and I am going to have to dedicate some time to this. It will be a complete, pragmatic, hands-on training guide and I will send an update as soon as it is completed.

Anthony Alvarico - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution is scalable, stable, and easy to deploy
I give the solution a nine out of ten. Azure Virtual Desktop tends to be a problem for us, but Azure Lab Services is pretty straightforward. The educational institution we deal with has a small IT department, with only a few people, including the director and their networking people, and the firewall team. I have not met all of their administrators, so I can't provide an exact number of administrators. I don't know if other IT people are delegated the permission or role. But for the ones we implemented, I deal with less than five people. This solution is a competitor of all the VDIs out there right now. The solution's target audience is entities such as academia and educational institutions that need to provide virtual machines with customized templates. We've just been given a project to use a new product that we're not sure how new it is. We know about it and its inception, but don't know when it was first created. We've never had a customer that actually needed it before, but it does come in handy when we do Azure Virtual Desktop implementations. For those customers that want more control over their environment, we show them how to create a template and manage the Azure Labs for them. There's a delegation type of feature that's very hard to do with Azure Virtual Desktop implementations until we have to do some administrative components in order to give that type of implementation with actual labs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features are the number of options available and the price."
"There are a lot of valuable features. Based on what I am focused on, the security aspect or layer and the analytics services are the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use and the professor's administrative segregation of permission which is already in place."
 

Cons

"Full hands-on labs for different environments like Angular would be really good."
"The solution can be improved by adding additional languages for the UI in order to support international students."
"It should have support for multiple languages, and it should be available in different languages. Although this solution has a translation, sometimes when you go deep, you will find some of the expressions in English."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS has a good pricing calculator and the training on their site will assist in using it."
"When comparing what the customers have now to what we offer, they have Horizon and VMware Horizon VDI. Azure Virtual Desktop is less expensive than those two options."
