Standart has great features that I might consider paying for but Lite has no advantage over VirtualBox. If I remember correctly, you didn't have a Lite version at the beginning.

This also adds to the cost of Parallels Lite. As a summary, I may consider paying for Parallels Standart because of great features but will never pay for the Lite when its equivalent software is free. The free version used to support Linux. Parallels has opted to change this to a subscription based feature in an update.

I would be okay with this if the new version was a separate app i. Instead, auto-update kicked in, I find myself in front of a screen demanding a login not previously required when I'm trying to get unversity work done on a time crunch, and I find out that the software wants to charge me going forward after a trial period.

Again, my biggest issue with this is the update to an existing app--most other apps that have gone to a subscription model have a separate app store listing for their new version to avoid this problem, or permanently grandfather in old users to certain feature sets. If parallels communicated this change at some point, they did not do so in the app any time I've been using it the last few months, and I must say I'm very disappointed.

Plus i had a key for windows and i never got to enter it Oh and through the adapter that is required to even use an Ethernet to hardline in I probably would have used the windows for other things too eventually I hope you find this helpful.

The problem came in when the application began taking up almost all of my hard drive space. Factorio 1.

It's not an app I use a lot - I install other Mac OS's rather than any ghastly Windows nonsense, which I did in the past - but Parallels is much improved and Parallels Toolbox offers genuinely useful tools.

Derekcurrie Feb 21 Parallels Desktop I'm not affiliated with any of these companies, BTW. I just like this bundle and own it.

That means it supports nearly all 3D games and more on Windows. A: NO! But seeing as Parallels has figured it out, I suspect they'll catch up soon. We've been waiting for this for many, many years. Really useful and powerful app.

I just bought the upgrade license with the blackfriday discount. I tested once again VMware Fusion and parallels: For me, parallels is really better. More customization options of sharing between OS'es, and it performs better. Although, it's quite expensive for a home usage. I try to upgrade only every y when it's possible.

An indispensible app to everyone who needs to run several operating system! MarcoCarugati Jul 17 Naoh Mar 21 Parallels Derekcurrie Feb 7 Initial support for Direct3D 12 is implemented. Direct3D 12 support requires the vkd3d library, and a Vulkan-capable graphics card.

And yet, the WINE project figured out how to do it. Explain that to me. Strange to list Mcr Dec 20 Guys, The following article sheds light on why Virtualization systems have not been able to solve the Direct X 11 and higher problem.

So, it would seem Metal 2. I'm not a graphics expert, but my understanding is that Vulkan is possibly the answer to a lot of these cross platform graphics support issues. Metal and DX sitting on top of Vulkan would provide a bridge, across multiple OS platforms; the graphics version of the 'write once, run anywhere' idea.

B-Jefferson-Le-Blanc Oct 15 If you're wondering, Parallels Desktop You don't need to pay for an upgrade at this time if you don't want to.

Derekcurrie Oct 15 Parallels Desktop v It is compatible with macOS This version is a big winner vs. Fusion, including the current Tech preview. Coherence integration is so much superior to the shaky Fusion Unity view, it's not even funny. Massive thumbs up for Parallels.

Only downside: More expensive for the Pro version on the annual subscription, and doesn't cover two machines like Fusion but worth it. Radus Jun 25 It implements 64bit parallels tools for OSX guest, improving the performance of osx guests.

Nice upgrade. When I bought my iMac back at the end of , I bought the Parallels version of it. It slowed down my computer to the degree that everything crashed despite adjusting settings to make it fast. I quit using Parallels and decided to use my mac functionality of Bootcamp. I wish also that I could get a refund for my money. I'm tired of believing companies that software sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.

This is probably one of the easiest VM applications to use. Sadly, their pricing is absolutely terrible and greedy. If they don't take care of their pricing, they will probably lose in the long run. For now, I paid for this. James Oct 26 After a frustrating experience with VMWare after paying for and spending the best part of a weekend trying to get their their latest version upgrade installed on my MacPro Desktop, only to find out after installation it is incompatible with my processor, I emailed Parallels presages questions.

That was 3 weeks ago and never got a reply. I switched from Parallels years ago due to poor support and customer service. Based on this experience that has not changed! If I am not going to get decent support from either company, why should I pay for their software when open source is available? Derekcurrie Oct 26 Aw21 Oct 10 With the I had to revert to Parallels Agf- Oct 10 That costs little, happy stars ;-.

Richard-Hallas Oct 10 An absolutely superb product on every level, with years of polish behind it. Best in class, and significantly better than its competitors in my experience. Parallels does no longer support Apple Bootcamp since Parallels 13 sorry without that function this Software is nearly worthless to me!!!!

CruzinCooler Sep 14 Not a hugh fan. Very slow on a 32 gb ram i7 iMac. Was expecting better performance. Parallels Desktop 13 Greedy Edition out! Go get your uss rammed! Sylanel Aug 24 I have purchased Parallels Desktop I contacted Parallels Customer support yesterday after having received an email announcing the availability of version Since I had just purchased, I thought they would help me out to get version 13 with paying the full price again.

They said that only people who've purchased on August 1st and later will get upgraded free of charge. The rest of their customers must pay again no matter what. Word of advice, buy VMware. They have been there forever. Parallels are just a greedy bunch who don't care about loyal customers even if you've been purchasing their software since their early years. Once again, stay far from Parallels! Derekcurrie Aug 22 Parallels 13 was released today. Parallels V13 should be out any day soon GorgeousGeorge May 16 Love Parallels a must for any Mac power user or professional who uses different apps in their day some of which are only available for Windows.

Let's face it there are some apps on Windows with no Mac equivalent. Parallels let's me run those special Windows apps I need without having to go to another computer or reboot my Mac into Windows. It's so convenient and powerful and saves me a ton of time and allows me to use all the tools I need.

Derekcurrie May 9 FYI for version 11 users. Parallels just updated to v It is a compatibility fix for running the latest Windows 10 update on macOS Breaks my heart, but Having said that, I've had to completely uninstall and reinstall Parallels after the Alvin-H Mar 10 Or can try free one virtualbox or Veertu desktop free too but no Mac OS guest yet. Aw21 Jan 29 When trying to launch the VMs some of them start with "Preparing Automatic Repair" and other just present a black screen.

Trying to repair the disks was not successful. I had to restore the VMs from backups. This looks like a fatal bug to me as it results in data loss. I've posted this on the Parallels forum but got not response. Any reason we're not seeing current updates here anymore?

Macpenguin Nov 24 This is simply the most outrageous update EVER! They already showed their greed when MacOsX But this is simply going much to far I will NOT do that I would urge people to try the competitors One is even FREE!

Macbookpro Nov 13 Ervins Strauhmanis Sep 15 I have Parallels Desktop Pro 12, which was won in a prize draw. I thought that I'd be getting a standard non-Pro version, and I was disappointed that I got a professional version instead. Why would I be frustrated in getting a more advanced edition, you might ask, it is because the app will stop to function within a year, as I discovered when I registered serial number on Parallels website.

I want to upgrade apps at a pace of my own choosing and as such, I will not even install the app, as to not to get locked out when the time is up. Technically it is a great peace of software, it's a pity that stance on customers blows it all away, for me at least. I now wait until it is bundled with a few other apps or offered as a special on MU before buying it.

Not sure if I'll be upgrading to v12, however, as v11 in conjunction with Windows 10 is working well on my mid iMac OhEssex Aug 26 When I see Parallels appear in the daily MacUpdate listings it shows as 3. When I click on it in the listings I go to the Parallels page, where it shows at the top as half a star.

Can we have a little more consistency here. What do the 3 different star ratings mean? I know that for many years now Parallels have been hosing their customers and I think the reviews that imply a rating over lifetime need to culled down to something like maybe 3 years. Just because every man and his dog thought Parallels was awesome back when it first came out and there wasn't really anything like it at the time bears no reflection at all on what seasoned users think of it today after how they've been treated by Parallels.

Derekcurrie Aug 26 No DirectX 10 support in sight. Same old 'wait and see' response from Parallels when asked about this now ancient holdup. Can't play modern 3D games. MacSpanner Aug 26 I'm a long time user and tried going to 12 but had to quickly revert to I'm sure it will get resolved in a while but at the moment v12 is unusably buggy in many ways. Go read the Parallels forums and you'll get an idea. Fiver starts when it's good but right now If you're running Win 8.

I've been told by Parallels support today that they're working on a workaround, but be sure they've fixed it before you kill your Win 10 license. They said "We apologize for the inconvenience, but this issue is caused by Windows 10 activation policies: the activation key is bounded to the hardware and as the virtual machine emulates hardware it differs from the real one reasonably enough.

You're not the only one facing this issue and our Development team already works upon a workaround for this issue, but you should understand that it is a Windows licensing issue, not the Parallels one.

It's a Parallels issue because they claim you can run Windows in their Virtual Machine, and now you can't! Personally, I'm leaving them completely after it took me 48 hours of support calls before they 'fessed up that that they knew they had a problem. I'll try something else. Rikyman Jul 12 I was a parallels suporter, but the new licencing is no go, it's not an upgrade but a big downgrade, there are better less ripping user software, I have moved do VMWare, after this. By the price of this software you can buy an infocus kangaroo and have a Windows machine allways with you.

Toosit Jul 5 Version 11 is a rip off because it's basically version 10 minus version 11's pro features. Why on earth would I buy a downgraded version or pay an annual subscription to get same old features!? I will be using my old version 10 which is great! I am still using v8 with OSX
