Hosted shared servers, based on a multi-user operating system like Windows Server with Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH), allow multiple users to share a single OS instance. This architecture inherently leads to the highest user density and consequently the lowest per-user infrastructure cost, as resources are efficiently utilized across many users.

Highest level of user personalization is typically achieved with dedicated VDI or physical desktops, not shared server environments.

While shared servers offer high user density, Machine Creation Services (MCS) creates individual VM disks from a master image, which doesn't inherently lead to the lowest storage requirement compared to streaming solutions like Provisioning Services.

While shared servers are cost-effective, their application compatibility can be lower than dedicated VDI because not all applications are designed to run correctly in a multi-user environment.
