explanation for non-techies**

Imagine you have a car that you've been using to commute to work every day. Over time, you've become familiar with its quirks and how it performs on the road. However, the manufacturer has announced that this model will no longer be supported after a certain date, and they're offering a new model with advanced features and better performance. This is similar to what's happening with the transition from the Remoting connection report to the Cloud PC connection quality report.

The Remoting connection report, much like your old car, has been a reliable tool for monitoring key performance metrics such as Round-Trip Time and Sign-In Time. However, this report will be discontinued by the end of 2024. Microsoft is introducing the Cloud PC connection quality report as the new, improved model. This new report is like getting a car with a better engine, more features, and customizable options that allow you to tailor it to your specific needs.

The Cloud PC connection quality report provides enhanced insights into Cloud PC performance, offering detailed metrics like Round Trip Time, Available Bandwidth, and Remoting Sign-in Time. It's accessible through the Microsoft Intune admin center, where you can find it under Devices > Overview > Cloud PC performance. Just as you would test drive a new car to understand its capabilities, you can explore this report to see how it can help you monitor and manage Cloud PC connection quality more effectively.

To make the transition smooth, it's important to update your documentation and inform your IT administrators about this change. Think of it as learning about the new features of your upgraded car and sharing this information with anyone who might drive it. By doing so, you ensure that everyone is prepared and can take full advantage of the new capabilities.

In summary, while the Remoting connection report has served its purpose, the Cloud PC connection quality report offers a more robust and flexible solution for monitoring Cloud PC performance. Transitioning to this new report will help your organization maintain effective oversight of your Cloud PC environment.
