Best for cloud desktops on the cloud you already use
Workspot runs cloud-hosted virtual desktops and apps from one console, on Azure, Google Cloud or AWS. No plans are published, the pricing link is a quote request, and the pages don't list which client platforms work.
Who Workspot is for
- Fits if you are an IT team moving on-premises VDI to a cloud you choose
- Works for organizations running desktops in several regions
Who Workspot is not for
- Not for you if you want to see a price first, because cost needs a quote
- Skip it if you are a single user, as it is built for IT teams
- Too light for a trial: none is listed
- Watch out: client platforms are not listed on the pages we read
Why Workspot gets a 1.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo plans are published and the pricing link is a request form, so cost needs a quote. The 20 cents an hour figure on the home page is the vendor's claim, not a price list.
- FFree plan and trialNothing free and no trial on record, only a sales conversation.
- CFeaturesA control console, a client, monitoring and trends, global desktops and SIEM and ITSM hooks. It covers the VDI job for IT teams, with no gap named.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record, and IT has to set up desktops and the cloud behind them first.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only on the listing. The vendor says it works on any device, but names none.

Keep Workspot, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Workspot you would be making a fast, secure link to another computer through any network. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 80 of the 85 other remote desktop apps grade higher.
What you could not
- A fast, secure link to another computer through any network.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
What this rests on. Workspot’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Workspot?
Workspot is a desktops-as-a-service platform that hosts Windows virtual desktops and apps on Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, AWS or on-premises data centers. IT teams manage them from one console, and users connect with the Workspot Client. Prices are not published; the pricing link on the site leads to a request form.
Worth knowing
- No plans are published; the pricing link is a request form, so cost needs a quote.
- The homepage says a virtual desktop can cost as little as 20 cents an hour with its optimizations; this is the vendor's claim, not a price list.
- The client platforms are not listed on the pages read; the vendor says it works on any device.
