There are four ways you can pay for DaDesktop:
- Public cloud (from 5 EUR a day)
- Private server (from 10 EUR a day)
- Reseller or volume purchasing (from 1 EUR a day)
-
On premise
Public Cloud
Desktops are charged per day from 5 EUR per day for a simple Linux desktop with 8GB of RAM, 8 core CPU and 50GB of SSD storage.
Each extra 8GB of RAM, 8 cores CPU and 50GB of storage would cost you 5 EUR extra.
Windows machines require an extra 5 EUR a day. If you have your own license you don't need to pay this cost.
NB Daily charge of machines is specified as within 24 hours of starting from midnight, local server time
Private Server
If you want to have fixed costs regardless how many desktops you run or resources assigned to a single desktop, you can purchase a whole server.
For example E3-1260Lv5, 16GB DDR4, 960GB NVMe on 300Mbit/s Unmetered network would cost you 10 USD a day.
In this case you are just limited by the resources of the server.
