Kasm Server is a secure virtualized workspace that provides browser-based access to desktops, applications, and web services.

Kasm is changing the way that businesses deliver digital workspaces using our Containerized Desktop Infrastructure (CDI) technology to dramatically increase speed, responsiveness, and flexibility. We use a modern DevSecOps approach for programmatic delivery of services that include virtualized desktop infrastructure (VDI), application streaming, and browser isolation.

Kasm is not just a service, it is a highly configurable solution, and can be deployed in the cloud (Public or Private), on-premise (Including Air-Gapped Networks), or in a hybrid configuration.

Excellent solution for Browser Isolation and controllable Linux Desktops

What do you like best?

1. The ability to provide on-demand Linux Desktop environments from any browser.

In troubleshooting Web Development issues, I'm normally on a Windows 10 PC, so being able to start up an on-demand Linux Desktop allows me to handle things in a Linux environment without having to use a VPS or dedicated Linux install. And thanks to the optional persistence, when I start up the Desktop, I can choose if I want it to be a clean install or pick up where I left off.

2. Configurability

Out-of-the-box, it's completely functional and requires no configuration. But there's so much that you CAN tweak and configure to your needs.

3. Responsiveness of Support

I've contacted Kasm Support for a couple install and management issues, and they are extremely responsive and helpful. In fact, I had a feature suggestion, and it was included in the succeeding release!

What do you dislike?

1. Scope of available applications.

I'd love to see them increase their library of available "Kasms" to include additional applications. They have done a nice job in expanding the available applications within the Deluxe Desktop Kasm, but I'd love to see additional "isolated" applications, if feasible. I can understand that this takes time.

2. Custom Kasm development

I haven't dug into this yet, but it appears that you need extensive knowledge of Docker to be able to create custom Kasms. Their documentation on this seems sparse, but it may be my inexperience.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Having the ability to spin up an isolated browser or a full Linux Desktop helps me to troubleshoot and address Web development issues from a source outside my home or office. This helps me to validate issues that otherwise might be difficult in a local environment.
