A smarter alternative to Strigo

What makes DaDesktop the better choice over Strigo?

Strigo provides a sophisticated plug-in infrastructure, but it falls short when it comes to cost-effectiveness, speed, and the crucial ability to run nested virtualisation—the feature that lets you spin up virtual machines within a VM in the application. Having nested virtualisation is a game changer for server application training, such as with Kubernetes or Docker, because it allows for a complete 'end to end' testbed.

DaDesktop, on the other hand, delivers an affordable, high-performance solution with exceptionally quick nested virtualisation already built in as default. It offers a clean, intuitive interface, and with an on-site option backed by a far wider network of data centres available in Hong Kong, you get much lower latency. This ensures a consistently smooth, powerful, and highly responsive learning experience every time.

DaDesktop is also a complete, out-of-the-box platform, whereas Strigo is a drop-in product that might need intricate configuration to integrate with another LMS, which could lead to firewall issues for your users.

And for those who need an on-premises deployment—where you host the software yourself to meet accountability and security requirements—DaDesktop fully supports this. In contrast, Strigo is solely a cloud-based, API-hosted platform, and it appears an on-premises setup simply isn't an option.
