DaaS FAQs
How does Parallels DaaS work?
DaaS or Desktop as a Service solutions enable users to access virtual desktops that are hosted and/or managed by a cloud provider.
It offers greater scalability, flexibility, and efficiency, making it an increasingly popular and cost-effective option for organizations seeking to avoid the growing complexity and rising costs of on-premises solutions.
What’s the difference between VDI and DaaS?
DaaS is a simpler, more flexible alternative to traditional virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). End users can access virtual desktops via DaaS, reducing the need for IT teams to manage software on individual devices.
With a pay-as-you-go subscription model, it allows organizations to offload backend management to the service provider and reduce IT operational costs.
VDI relies on an organization’s on-premises infrastructure, with in-house teams handling deployment and maintenance, while DaaS operates in the cloud, offering a pay-per-user model that simplifies scaling and hardware management.
This flexibility makes DaaS ideal for seasonal workers, mergers, or expanding hybrid teams.
How much does Parallels DaaS cost per user?
Parallels DaaS costs $9.00* per user, per month for a minimum of 15 users.
*MSRP monthly pricing for a one-year subscription.
