Pricing
There are four ways you can pay for DaDesktop:
- Public cloud (from 3 EUR a day)
- Private server (from 10 EUR a day)
- Reseller or volume purchasing (from 0.1 EUR a day)
- On premise
Public Cloud
Desktops are charged per day, starting at 3 EUR a day for a simple Linux desktop with 8GB of RAM, an 8 core CPU, and 50GB of SSD storage.
Each extra bundle of 8GB RAM, 8 CPU cores, and 50GB of storage will cost you an additional 3 EUR.
Windows machines require an extra 1 EUR a day. If you have your own license, you won't need to pay this cost.
NB The daily charge for machines is calculated within any 24-hour window starting from midnight, local server time.
Private Server
If you'd prefer to work with fixed costs, regardless of how many desktops you spin up or what resources a single desktop uses, you can purchase an entire server.
In this scenario, you're only limited by the server's overall resources, not by units or the number of desktops.

- Integrate DaDesktop with your own product
- Resell it
- Purchase in high volumes
