Monitoring and analytics

Ensuring that the performance and quality level of your cloud PC environment is good is just as (or perhaps even more) important as the implementation. Users need to be happy about their cloud PC and it should not impair their productivity.

Windows 365/cloud PC seamlessly integrates with all the monitoring and analytics capabilities that you use today for your physical endpoints. This means that you can easily distinguish between whether the problem is active on the physical endpoint or within the cloud PC session.

You will learn more about monitoring in Chapter 14, Monitoring and Endpoint Analytics, where we will take a much deeper dive into the specific metrics of ensuring the performance and quality of your Windows 365/cloud PC environment both proactively and reactively!
