VMware

VMware Fusion is the most powerful, mature, and stable way to run Windows on your Mac, bringing more than a decade’s worth of virtualization experience to the Mac platform.

  • With free tools like VMware Importer to import Parallels and Virtual PC virtual machines, the time has never been better to switch to the best. See why thousands have already switched.
  • Better yet, VMware Fusion 2.0, launching later this year, will be a free upgrade for all VMware Fusion 1.x customers. It’s like getting 2.0 for the price of 1.x.

What the Experts Are Saying

“As I get around and talk to geeks I would tell them that I’ve been using Parallels so that I could run Windows on top of my Macintosh’s OSX operating system, but have had some troubles with crashing and other things. The answer back has been quite consistent: that I should use VMware’s Fusion…So, I finally gave in. And, damn, it is nicer and faster...”

—Robert Scoble, scobleizer.com, 

“More recently, though, I have switched to VMware Fusion for my Windows virtualization needs…. I just find VMware a bit more 'Mac-like' and easier to setup and use.”

—Chris Ullrich, The Unofficial Apple Weblog, 

“Personally, I use the newly released VMware Fusion. You can do virtually all of the same things with Fusion that you can with Parallels, but Fusion blows its counterparts out of the water when it comes to performance.”

—Chris Pirillo, chris.pirillo.com, 

“This year after a few too many Parallels-induced spinning beach balls of death, we're moving over to VMware's Fusion product. The virtualization company's answer to Parallels is more stable, can import Parallels disk images, and works with crazy configurations like a Vista Boot Camp partition.”

—Gina Trapani, Lifehacker, 

“Given my experience with VMware Fusion, I think VMware has a convert.”

—Matt Lu, The Unofficial Apple Weblog, 

“Fusion also seems quite stable. I’ve had it running for hours in the background without a problem. Parallels frequently crashed or slowed my computer to an unusable speed even when I greatly decreased the guest OS’s resources.”
