The Strigo Alternative

What Makes DaDesktop a Better Choice than Strigo?

Strigo provides sophisticated drop-in infrastructure capabilities but is deficient in terms of pricing, performance, and the absence of nested virtualisation—that is, the ability to run virtual machines inside the VM within the application. Nested virtualisation proves especially valuable when instructing on server applications like Kubernetes and Docker, enabling a complete 'end to end' testing environment.

By contrast, DaDesktop delivers an affordable, high-performance solution with ultra-fast nested virtualisation built in by default. It features a more intuitive interface, an on-premises option, and a significantly larger number of data centres strategically located in Germany to ensure superior connection latency. This guarantees a seamless, potent, and highly responsive learning experience every time.

Additionally, DaDesktop is a complete, ready-to-use solution, while Strigo is a drop-in tool that might need intricate configuration to mesh with an LMS, possibly leading to client firewall complications.

Moreover, for organizations needing an on-premises deployment—where they can host the application themselves for accountability and security—DaDesktop fully accommodates this. In contrast, Strigo is solely an API-hosted platform and, it seems, cannot be utilized on-premises in such a manner.
