Circumference Desktop
Launch dedicated Windows & Linux VMs on Azure and use them straight from your browser—no RDP or SSH needed. Disposable when you want, persistent when you need.
Your desktop, on demand
Desktop is a virtual desktop hosting service that creates dedicated Azure VMs for your account—never shared, always yours. Connect in the browser, choose disposable or persistent storage, automate start/stop, and scale specs or instance count as your needs grow.
How Desktop works
Dedicated Azure machines, simple controls, and a browser window to do real work.
