Cloud PC utilization report (preview)

  • Article

The Cloud PC utilization report helps you monitor and optimize Cloud PC usage in your organization. It shows you how much time users spend on their Cloud PCs and when they last connected to them.

By reviewing Cloud PCs with low usage, you can reduce costs by:

  • Reassigning under-used Cloud PC licenses to other users who might use them more often.
  • Identifying and deprovisioning Cloud PCs that are inactive for long periods of time.

Use the Cloud PC utilization report

To get to the Cloud PC utilization report, sign in to Microsoft Intune admin center, select Devices > Cloud PC performance > Cloud PCs utilization (preview).
