Our verdict on HP Anyware
HP Anyware provides PCoIP remote display access to virtual desktops, remote workstations, and graphics-intensive workloads. It is designed for organizations supporting users across Windows, Linux, macOS, mobile, and Chrome OS endpoints, with hosts deployed in data centers, edge locations, private clouds, public clouds, multicloud, or hybrid environments. Its components include Anyware agents, software and mobile clients, Anyware Manager, and Cloud Gateway. Standard and Professional subscriptions separate CPU-only everyday workloads from GPU-enabled, compute-heavy work.
Pricing is structured around concurrent users and billed annually. Anyware Standard costs $150 per concurrent user per year and includes the Standard Agent for CPU-only host desktops. Anyware Professional costs $299 per concurrent user per year and targets designers, engineers, and data scientists, with the Graphics Agent for GPU-enabled host desktops running Windows, Linux, or macOS. The published pricing also identifies a minimum order quantity of 5, while Anyware Manager Enterprise has a minimum order quantity of 10. Cloud and local license-server options are available through the pricing model.
The platform’s main strength is its fit for remote workstation access across varied infrastructure. Anyware Manager supports provisioning, monitoring, automation, and access management, while Cloud Gateway supports connections across geographies. AES-256 encryption, multifactor authentication, multi-monitor support, 4K/UHD, and peripheral support address common remote-workstation requirements. Organizations with graphics-intensive users and hybrid or multicloud environments should consider Professional; teams with standard CPU workloads can choose Standard. Organizations seeking a free plan or a lower annual concurrent-user commitment should look elsewhere.
