It’s very easy, and fast with few clicks install . And fast in use rather than other apps. Also price is average and supports most OS

Some competitors in macos called parallel, offer direct shortcut to a folder or app. This feature I don’t think it’s available here. Also I faced one time some issues in sound, after uninstalling and installing problems resolved
