DaDesktop On-Premise

The customer runs DaDesktop on physical hardware situated at their own premises or in data centers across Portugal.

Clients can purchase a license alone, or a license bundled with DaDesktop-provided hardware.

DaDesktop OEM

DaDesktop OEM enables other providers to resell DaDesktop software under their own branding, so end users are unaware they are using DaDesktop. The reseller handles all client support inquiries.
