It works well to explain basic concepts to students, and helps them understand these concepts by a step by step process in the lab. But it does not really challenge the students into thinking for themselves or help them gain better skills, it only helps them understand a concept. Due to its slow speed it does prove difficult to use.

Azure Virtual Desktop is an excellent tool for extending your existing infrastructure to the cloud and providing the same experience to users in both on-premises and virtual environments. Azure Lab Services, with its quicker setup time, and lack of connection to existing domains provides the ability to quickly spin up virtual environments for use for experimentation, learning, or delivering production resources.
