Windows 365 are available, starting at $ 20

Enough has been said about Windows 365 lately, confirming familiar words Mary J. Foleythat Microsoft is preparing such a service for early launch. We have now seen the launch of this service, which has been announced on the Microsoft blog. So far, however, it is not intended for individuals, quite the opposite. On the one hand, it is a version for Business, which means companies or organizations in general with up to 300 people, and for even larger entities, there is an Enterprise version.-

Windows 365 is thus Windows 10 or 11 located in the cloud, which means that the customer not only pays Microsoft the right to use these operating systems, but also the relevant hardware on which it will run, plus the associated services. The person on the other end will only need a suitable device from which to access such a computer in the cloud, and it can be another PC, tablet, phone equipped with Windows, iOS, macOS, Android and in the near future will also ensure compatibility for Linux.

Our Windows 365 virtual machine will always remain accessible in the state we left it in, so it doesn’t matter which device we last accessed it from. But what matters are the hardware configurations that Microsoft offers. Respectively, we would rather talk about dedicated hardware resources, which start on only one CPU core, 2 GB of memory and 64 GB of storage space. This configuration will cost $ 20, but it can’t be described as usable. –

At the top is a system with 8 CPU cores, 32 GB of memory and 512 GB for $ 158 per month, and in the meantime we offer 2 or 4 cores, 8/16 GB of memory and 128 to 256 GB. Current offer with prices in euros can be found here. –

Graphics performance is not mentioned anywhere, and even the highest available configuration shows that Microsoft does not want to replace content creators with its Windows 365, but this is an obvious thing. Rather, it is an offer for large companies, where IT departments manage hundreds, thousands or even more computers of employees who use their PCs for office applications, communication and other quite simple purposes.

But we have to wait for the response from companies.
