The modern VDI solution

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Pros:

For users I like the ease of use since they only need a browser, no need to install a client. As a devops engineer I really like that the applications are hosted on containers making them easy to shift from on-prem to the cloud and also as a container they are efficient with the compute consumption. In my experience legacy VDI solutions have a lot of overhead which increases cost and it is a major reason why I.T. departments host them on local hypervisors rather than using devops methodologies in the cloud. I stopped working and consulting the legacy VDI solutions due to the lack of devops techniques but Kasm is a game changer since it brings DevOps to VDI and I highly recommend at work and to clients.

Cons:

Not a must have but other products that have a web interface for virtual apps and desktops offer integrations with ticketing and HR software so that users login to one portal to check in. In my experience user adoption has been "hit and miss" with these integrations since they are limited and often read only API responses from services like ServiceNow or Workday which are better used while logged in. The Kasm Workspace interface is clean and provides a great user experience already.

Reasons for choosing Kasm Workspaces

Better pricing for a better product.

Reasons for switching to Kasm Workspaces

Better backend technology and easier to deploy as an engineer and ease of use for users.

Why I recommend Kasm

Overall, I have been using Kasm for a couple months now, and the software is really nice. I started using it for school, when my district blocked a note taking app that I like. After getting comfortable with Kasm I followed the tutorial in the documentation to make a container for sublime text. After that I made a custom container that auto install ad-block and runs a music streaming service that I like. There is also excellent support.

Pros:

Installing Kasm Workspaces is very easy. It only took about 30 minutes for it to work. Upon logging on for the first time they great job in Web portal design. Adding a new image, docker container, is also very easy. Another very nice feature was the easy ability to add more users. It takes minimal knowledge to set up, and there is excellent documentation to help in the event of problems.

Cons:

I did not have problems with Kasm, but the one downside that I don't like is the inability of the admin account to log into all of the sessions. However, I have not looked deeply into this, it may be my mistake.

Reasons for choosing Kasm Workspaces

I choose this because there is a free community edition, and it uses Linux. While that may scare some off the nice part about using Linux is I don't need to worry about licensing. If I choose something like Cameyo I would.

Pros:

Cloud service that provides access to applications, desktops and browsers. This allows me to interact with the web without putting my browser/computer at risk. The Sharing feature is very useful for screen sharing without having to join into a web conference application. The ability to launch a desktop to have access to installed applications or to modify files with a full productivity suite is very useful.

Cons:

File upload is through the control panel instead of drag-and-drop.

Reasons for choosing Kasm Workspaces

The best price of the available solutions, cloud hosted and browser-based so I don’t have to install any software.

Pros:

Kasm is disposable, isolated, virtual, open source, user friendly, easy to install, easy to use, have very rich app or OS library. It's free to give a try. Everybody can install it and try easily. These are most parts I liked in KASM.

Cons:

There is not anything that I can say I like least or I do not like. But for the improvement it's not support windows. Linux based OS are not known and uses by standart people. Linux based OS are prefered by expert people. Beside this there are lots of Windows PC users. I think Kasm should be installed on Windows PC's also and let them to give a try if KASM.

Kasm Workspaces is a Leader in Containerized Desktop Infrastructure

We used Kasm primarily as a remote browser isolation platform for open-source threat intelligence hunting and gathering operations; and the platform was ideal for this use.

Pros:

Kasm offers ease of use, cross-platform integration, and quick onboarding while also providing a robust remote work environment suitable for everything from remote browser isolation use to complete CDI/VDI solutions for remote office workers.

Cons:

The integration of Microsoft Windows-based software would greatly benefit many organizations that currently may consider other CDI/VDI providers simply for this feature, as Kasm is a clear leader in all other regards.

Kasm Workspaces is a must-have for Chromebook users!

Overall, my experience with Kasm Workspaces has been overwhelmingly positive, and I would highly recommend it to any business or organization looking for a reliable and secure platform for streaming containerized apps and desktops. The features it offers, such as enterprise-class orchestration and data loss prevention, make it a top choice in its field.

Pros:

As someone who has been using Kasm Workspaces for a couple of months now, I can confidently say that it has exceeded my expectations. The Container Streaming Platform® has proven to be an essential tool for my work as a software engineer, especially since I primarily use a Chromebook.One of the standout features for me has been the enterprise-class orchestration. It ensures that the delivery of containerized workloads is seamless and efficient, which has been a major asset in my day-to-day work.Another aspect of Kasm Workspaces that I appreciate is the data loss prevention feature. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my sensitive data is protected, and it's a valuable addition to the platform.

Cons:

One of the things I dislike about the platform is that the lower tiers can be a bit restrictive in terms of the number of hours included. While I understand that the pricing is tiered to offer a range of options to customers, I do wish that the lower tiers offered a bit more flexibility in terms of the number of hours included.Having said that, I do appreciate that Kasm Workspaces offers a range of pricing tiers to meet the needs of different customers. It's just that, as someone who has been using the software extensively, I do find myself requiring a bit more flexibility in terms of the number of hours included in the lower tiers.Overall, this is a minor issue for me and doesn't diminish my overall satisfaction with the platform. Kasm Workspaces has proven to be a reliable and secure platform for streaming containerized apps and desktops to end-users, and I would highly recommend it to any business or organization.
