Description

Managing Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 shouldn't be complicated. Hydra gives administrators and MSPs the control layer they need to confidently deploy and manage modern virtual desktops — without the added cost, complexity, or limitations of native tooling and traditional alternatives.

Description

Nerdio Manager for Enterprise and Nerdio Manager for MSP empower Managed Service Providers and Enterprise IT Professionals to swiftly implement Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365, allowing them to oversee all their environments from a single, user-friendly platform while significantly reducing expenses by as much as 75% on Azure resources. The platform enhances the built-in functionalities of Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365, providing users with rapid and automated deployment of virtual desktops, intuitive management that can be executed in just a few clicks, and features that promote cost savings without compromising the robust security offered by Microsoft Azure or the high-level support from Nerdio. Additionally, for Managed Service Providers, the multi-tenant solution facilitates automatic provisioning in less than an hour and enables connection to existing deployments within minutes, alongside streamlined management of all clients through an easy-to-use admin portal, further augmented by Nerdio's Advanced Auto-scaling for optimal cost efficiency. This comprehensive approach not only simplifies the deployment process but also enhances operational efficiency, making it a vital tool for modern IT management.
