In their own words

DaDesktop

DaDesktop provides browser-accessible virtual desktops for remote IT training. Instructors can monitor learners’ desktops in real time and offer guidance during sessions. Reusable desktop templates, snapshots, and one-click restoration support preparing and resetting lab configurations. The platform also lists video conferencing, live streaming, chat, and session recordings. For technical workloads, it offers NVIDIA and AMD GPU desktops for machine learning, 3D rendering, CAD, video editing, and scientific computing. The Public Cloud option starts at ¥4 per desktop per day, billed by calendar day rather than hour, and includes 8 GB RAM, an 8-core CPU, and 50 GB SSD. Extra resources and Windows have additional listed charges. Other arrangements include private servers, on-premise deployment on customer infrastructure, and reseller or volume plans. The on-premise option runs on the customer’s hardware and network, with data kept in that environment. DaDesktop identifies training providers, higher education institutions, coding bootcamps, software vendors, and multi-site organizations as use cases. It launched under the DaDesktop brand in 2019.
