Frequently Asked Questions
Nerdio Manager for MSP is a multi-tenant platform for MSPs to manage all their customers from one centralized platform. Easily deploy, manage, and cost optimize your customers AVD, Windows 365, Azure infrastructure, and Windows 365 technologies while saving hours’ worth of time each week and up to 75% on Azure compute and storage costs.
Nerdio will help with everything from pricing an AVD environment, deploying the environment, managing all customer environments on an ongoing basis, and optimizing them to save money through auto-scaling and time savings. Using Nerdio’s advanced automation technology and easy to use management portal, you can get your clients up and running faster and with less resources.
Yes! Nerdio will assist partners on initial on-boarding and will supply project guidelines and support through real-time chat. Additionally, go-live assistance outside of business hours can be scheduled by the partner at least one week ahead of time.
There are many ways to reduce costs in AVD. Using Reserved instances to reserve the VMs ahead of time and Azure Hybrid Benefit to leverage licensing you already own can reduce compute cost by as much as 80%. Also, utilizing auto-scale to ‘scale in’ your host pools after hours can ensure you aren’t paying for VMs that don’t need to be running.
Cost is dependent upon the number of desktop users and the Azure resources necessary to support your users. Compared to the potential savings though, Nerdio cost should be miniscule. It can pay for itself in the first 7-10 days of the month, depending on the customer.
Choose one or mix and match from two available plans: Azure Virtual Desktop (includes all Modern Work plan features as well), and Modern Work. Depending on the plan chosen, the costs can fluctuate. Nerdio’s knowledgeable team of experts will help determine which hybrid plan is best for you.
