Common complaints - recurring incumbent review gaps = the wedge to build

Limited Windows OS support5×

Lack of Windows-based desktop images forces Linux-only deployments, limiting adoption among enterprise Windows users.

Complex admin & manual configuration4×

Advanced configuration tasks (custom images, network isolation, persistence) require CLI/backend work outside UI.

Poor mobile app & device access3×

Missing or limited mobile app; USB forwarding, webcams, and mobile session support are absent.

Weak integration ecosystem5×

Missing integrations with ticketing, HR, SSO, Kubernetes, and third-party authentication systems.

Streaming quality & input reliability issues3×

Lossless mode streaming quality degradation; text input and right-click freezes during sessions.

Confusing pricing & licensing complexity4×

Tiered pricing with modular add-ons, per-connector charges, and unclear license management cause confusion.

Limited support channels & hours4×

Ticket-only support, English-only, off-peak availability (European hours), no chat or phone support.

Steep installation & setup complexity3×

Installation process has undocumented errors; lengthy setup and configuration learning curve.
