Pricing
I'm a software engineer and I'm wondering what it would cost to use WVD so I can work from home sometimes. My company has an enterprise office 365 subscription but I don't know what sort. Supposing I wanted to use WVD for 20 hours a week at home (either Win 10 or Win 7) to do coding, maybe occasional compiling, writing documents with WORD, OneNote, email, github, and web browsing, how would I work out what the monthly cost of this would be? Most of it is non CPU intensive.
Do I need a VPN or is the client server communication adequately protected without one?

evasse I check this calculator in 2021 year in didn't found it usefull for me. I don't want "minimum 100 users" and pay $$$$$ per month. I just want to "teleport" my PC into azure: 8Cores 32Gb RAM and 200Gb space. Windows 10 pro, docker, jetbrains tool box, office 365, wireshark. But your calculator probably made for corporate users?

Athathoth We are aware of the ask for making the calculator more useful for scenarios with less than 100 users and are looking into making this possible.
