Cloud Migration Services FAQs

What is a cloud desktop?

A cloud desktop, or Desktop as a Service (DaaS), is a secure, virtual desktop environment hosted in the cloud and fully managed by Daystar's team of experts. Instead of relying on local hardware, your team accesses their desktop, files, and applications from anywhere with an internet connection-on any device.

This approach provides a consistent, high-performance experience for all users, while centralizing security, updates, and management in the cloud. With Daystar, your cloud desktops are proactively monitored, patched, and optimized, freeing your team from technical headaches and allowing them to focus on your business goals.

What's the difference between hosted desktop vs. cloud desktop?

The difference between hosted desktops and cloud desktops is largely about flexibility and management. Hosted desktops are typically managed on private servers, either on-premises or at a third-party data center, requiring significant investment and ongoing maintenance by your IT team or vendor.

Cloud desktops, like those delivered by Daystar, are delivered as a managed service using robust cloud infrastructure. This means you only pay for what you use, can scale resources up or down easily, and never worry about hardware upgrades, security patches, or backups-everything is handled for you. Cloud desktops are more agile, cost-effective, and easier to manage compared to traditional hosted solutions.

How much do cloud desktops cost?

Cloud desktop pricing is typically based on a monthly, per-user subscription, with costs varying depending on your specific requirements such as storage, processing power, and security features.

With Daystar's all-inclusive managed IT platform, there are no hidden fees or unexpected costs. You receive a single, predictable monthly invoice that covers everything-management, security, support, backups, and more. This transparent model makes it easy to budget and ensures your investment directly supports your business outcomes rather than unpredictable IT expenses.

Will I need someone on-site to manage cloud desktops?

With Daystar cloud desktops, the need for on-site IT management is drastically reduced. All maintenance, updates, monitoring, and security are handled remotely by our expert team, using proactive management and automation.

Your internal IT staff can focus on strategic initiatives and business alignment instead of routine desktop support. If you need co-managed IT support, Daystar can also augment your in-house team, providing capacity and expertise exactly where you need it. The result: fewer interruptions, less downtime, and a streamlined IT operation-no matter where your users are located.

What are the benefits of cloud desktops?

Cloud desktops from Daystar offer transformative benefits for growing organizations:

  • Secure remote access to applications and files from any device, supporting seamless remote and hybrid work.

  • Proactive management and monitoring reduce issues, minimize downtime, and enhance productivity.

  • Built-in cybersecurity, data backup, and compliance controls-no add-ons required.

  • Scalable resources that grow with your business, without the need for hardware investments or complex upgrades.

  • Predictable, transparent pricing that simplifies budgeting and maximizes IT value.

With Daystar, you gain not just a technology solution but a strategic partner focused on your long-term success.
