It combines the simplicity of a physical Windows PC with the accessibility of a traditional VDI. It eliminates the need to allocate resources, use multiple admin roles, build back-end infrastructure, and do other tasks needed to run a cloud-based solution cost-effectively. It can be provisioned easily, and end-users can access their apps, data, file, and settings on any device, even with low bandwidth.

3. What is the difference between Microsoft Windows 365 Cloud PC and Azure Virtual Desktop?

The primary difference between Cloud PC and Azure Virtual Desktop is the way the two solutions are priced.

4. What is the difference between Enterprise Cloud PC and Business Cloud PC?

Microsoft provides Windows 365 Business and Windows 365 Enterprise as the two edition options with several Cloud PC configurations depending on performance requirements. Business Cloud PC does not require an Azure subscription, and there is no dependence on Intune licenses, as the solution runs entirely in Microsoft's Azure subscription. However, Enterprise Cloud PCs require an Azure subscription with properly configured networks with access to Active Directory on which Azure AD Hybrid Join is enabled.

5. What are the requirements for Cloud PC?

In terms of software licensing, Cloud PC can be purchased as standalone, or as a part of M365 E3, E5, and Business Premium subscriptions.

6. Is it possible to upgrade or downgrade Windows 365 Cloud PC plans?

The option to resize RAM, CPU, and storage size is available for Windows 365 Enterprise customers.

Also, it is not possible to convert Windows 365 Business licenses to Windows 365 Enterprise.

7. Are there any discounts for Windows 365 Cloud PC?

Primary users of Windows 10 Pro licensed devices can save as much as 16% on Windows 365 Business subscriptions with Windows Hybrid Benefit.

Bill, Project Manager, Columbus, Ohio

"We found managing Azure to be quite challenging and tricky. If you just go with Microsoft, the granular updates and customizations won't be provided which can be crucial to your company. An Azure partner such as Apps4Rent brings a lot of rich experience on the table."

Kristen, Developer, Montgomery, Alabama
