>Azure remote desktop is actually all BYOL (bring your own license) and you need to either buy special Enterprise SKU licenses (E5/E7 AFAIK) that Microsoft only sells through resellers (at twice the cost of a normal Windows client license[0]) or have all your employees on Windows volume keys that somehow magically license the VMs when they connect to their remote desktop (which... defeats the point of remote desktop). While overall I agree that Azure can be confusing for pricing, this is incorrect. Business Premium licenses (as well as 365 E3/E5/F3 licenses) can be purchased without a reseller, and cover Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) Windows 10/11 Enterprise usage. >If you don't want to mess about with separate VMs per user and want, say, Windows Server with a bunch of people signed into one VM, then the licensing costs double again. Unless you specifically want multiple people logging into Windows Server, the same licenses I mentioned above support AVD Windows 10/11 Enterprise multi-session. You can spin up a single beefy VM and have Business Premium/E3/E5/F3 licensed users connect with no additional costs.
