Hydra is the practical management layer for Windows in the Cloud

Designed for Azure Virtual Desktop (both cloud and on-premises) and Windows 365, Hydra gives enterprise IT teams a simpler, more cost-efficient way to run Microsoft virtual desktops day to day, at scale.

Instead of managing multiple native Azure portals, scripts, and tools, teams operate everything through a single, familiar operational layer. The result is lower operational overhead and predictable, consumption-based costs as environments scale.

What Hydra Does

One Management Layer Across AVD and Windows 365

Single dashboard for host pools, machines, and live user sessions
Familiar workflows teams already know, no retraining required
Replace manual scripts and scattered Azure portals with one focused workspace

Real-time Visibility and Control

Lightweight Hydra agent provides real-time performance insights directly from the VM, no lag from Azure tools
Diagnose helpdesk issues while users are connected
Built-in self-service portal reduces tickets and escalations
Take immediate action with centralized session controls, image lifecycle management, and automation

Live in Under 30 Minutes

Deploy directly from Azure Marketplace
Attach to existing AVD and/or Windows 365 environments
No re-architecture, re-imaging, migration projects, or setup fees
Operational and cost savings from day one

Pricing Aligned to Real Usage

Hydra aligns pricing with how AVD and Windows 365 workspaces are actually used.

Pay only for peak concurrent sessions, not total monthly logins
Unlimited tenants included by default (no per-tenant fees)
