Rackspace Alternative for SAAS Hosting - Datamark Live

 vs.  Rackspace

The Hidden Cost of Rackspace

Datamark Live allows you to seamlessly run essential business applications in the Cloud, delivering custom Windows desktop and network programs to your users without needing to rewrite them as web applications.

Rackspace can be configured similarly using Microsoft Remote Desktop Web Access to deliver Windows applications in the Cloud. However, such a solution involves purchasing multiple servers in Rackspace (4 to 8 VMs), a highly involved setup process, and additional licensing requirements. Rackspace offers little to no support in setting this up. The form below compares the costs of running a highly available Microsoft RD Web Access deployment infrastructure on Rackspace vs. Datamark Live. Try changing the number of users or server level to match your own application’s needs.

It takes many servers working together in order to host your Windows application in the Cloud and keep it available to any number of users at once. With Rackspace, you pay monthly for all these servers.

With Datamark Live, the power and availability of all those additional servers and processes are included in the cost of just one server tailored to the needs of your software and user base.

Clear-cut, affordable pricing with Datamark Live

One of the challenges you face with Rackspace is the difficulty of determining your actual cost. The Rackspace pricing calculator provides costs for specific machine instances but requires you to estimate other fees such as internet bandwidth, additional storage, and backups.

By contrast, our pricing page offers a clear monthly total covering all aspects of your Datamark Live web streaming solution.
