Pros

Apple è una garanzia di versatilità e semplicità, tuttavia è riservato ad una nicchia di mercato anche se sempre in espansione. Viceversa le App in ambiente windows sono la maggioranza e spesso non sono compatibili con entrambi i sistemi. Qui Parallels interviene in modo straordinario tornando a tutti la possibilità di avere una VM (virtual machine) sulla propria macchina in modo da poter far girare windows e le app che funzionano solo in ambiente windows. Ciò che però è davvero interessante è la funzione che permette di usare windows in modo praticamente integrato a Mac al 100%E' un software non indispensabile se sapete realizzare una VM autonomamente, ma anche per chi lo sa fare Parallels rende la vita indubbiamente più facile.

Cons

Non è a buon mercato, e richiede una spesa annuale di circa 100€. Ma ti trovi quello quello che paghi

A pretty good product which has helped us internally a lot

Pros

I like the fact that this was created so we can manage mac's iPhone and ipads in a logical and useful way.

Cons

The software does have some limitations however we are working with them to see if we can get some of these improvised and they seem very interested in helping us.

I've been extremely satisfied with Parallels and have recommended it to several colleagues in my same situation.

Pros

I like that Parallels allows me to use Windows based software (in particular WordPerfect) that is not available for Mac.

Cons

I've used Parallels for almost 14 years. Over the years, it has become easier to install and update than in the earliest years of my usage. It still is not entirely intuitive - there are times when I find it a little cumbersome to get my most-used program up and running.

Before we got Parallels, we were using a separate Windows computer for one specific program. As our team grew and we needed space in our office, we transitioned to getting an external SSD and making a copy of that computer on it. Now with Parallels, we don't need a separate computer or workstation just to use that one program.

Pros

Being able to use niche software that is only available for Windows on our Mac computers.

Cons

Running Parallels (or any Virtual Machine for that matter) can use a lot of processing power. There's not much that can be done about that, though, unless you boot up the other operating system from Boot Camp.

Crucial applications that are only available for Windows can be used easily with Parallels. The Tools that come with it make it easy to customize from an IT perspective as well - e.g. deciding what features and functionality should be available in Windows vs those only available on the Mac OS side.

Pros

Makes using Windows on the mac really really easy. The integration allows file access between mac/windows really easily as well. Windows feels and works just like normal.

Cons

It's annoying that the software update that happens every year comes with additional cost. I've gotten used to the free OS upgrades from Apple, but then to have to pay to upgrade Parallels every year for the new version that best supports the new OS...this cost just feels so...Windowsy :)

Generally good experience, once the users are qualified and trained.

Pros

We have used parallels in some of our Macs for years, the installation process is very easy and we have had interns taking care of it.

Cons

Parallels itself has not always been user friendly. Some of our more tenured Mac users have struggled using it and we have had to train them on it, which has represented a cost for the company.

Easy to install, has not interfered with my daily use of applications on my Mac. Easy to "switch" to the PC side. Affordable.

Pros

Easy to install and works without glitches. No need to call a sales rep, simple to download and self-installed. I use it for two programs that I need for business that are not Mac compatible.

Cons

While I'm "up and running", I think I need some training (Word documents want to open on the PC side rather than Mac side) - likely a simple fix for this, but I haven't found it in any of the on-line help material. Likely I am under-utilizing some of the features.

It’s a decent product but not the best solution for windows.

Pros

Parallels is a great tool if you don’t want to switch from a Mac to a Windows PC but still need PC functionality.

Cons

That said, it’s not a PC. I eventually ended up just buying a windows laptop because Parallels just couldn’t cut it.

After the trial I found some cool tools but there are similar tools less expensive.

Pros

It's a very easy way to get Windows VM (and no VMs) running on Mac. Easy download-setup. File storage browsing its brilliant

Cons

Have some issues with domain networks and shares. Maybe it takes some time to get use to it.

I have been very happy with Parallels. It has made my Mac act like two computers in one. Being able to run both native Mac programs and Windows programs without two separate machines is great.

Pros

Parallels is a great way to integrate both Windows and Mac together. Often I need to run a Windows program that is not available on Mac computers. Parallels makes this easy. I am able to run Mac OSX and open a separate space on my computer to run Windows at the same time.

Cons

Sometimes running parallels can slow down Mac programs. I tend to only run Parallels when I absolutely need it.
