DaDesktop: A Smarter Alternative to Strigo

Why DaDesktop Outperforms Strigo?

While Strigo offers complex drop-in infrastructure, it comes up short in terms of pricing, speed, and lacks nested virtualisation — the ability to run VMs inside the main application VM. Nested virtualisation is especially valuable for teaching server technologies like Kubernetes and Docker, giving learners a complete 'end to end' testing environment.

In contrast, DaDesktop delivers an affordable, high-speed platform with exceptionally fast nested virtualisation included from the start, a simpler interface, and the option to host on-site. With a much larger network of data centres available across Italy, we guarantee lightning-fast connectivity, ensuring a seamless, responsive, and powerful learning experience every time.

DaDesktop also arrives as a full, ready-to-use solution, whereas Strigo is a drop-in product that may need complicated integrations with other LMS systems, which can lead to firewall headaches for clients.

Moreover, for organisations needing an on-premises deployment for security and accountability, DaDesktop fully supports self-hosting. Strigo, on the other hand, appears to be an API-only hosted platform and cannot be run on your own infrastructure.
