VMware Fusion 4 [Old Version]

Thsi product works just as advertised (which, frankly, is saying a lot these days). I bought it for my son to use in college on his Mac laptop. He also needed to run Windows and this seemed like a good option to the basic Mac installed Boot Camp. I let him install it himself and the reports back are that its working great. Simple to install, simple to use and it runs Windows like its supposed to. No complaints so far.

I tried this to help hubby do some office work at home, but on our Macs this took up way too much space and memory. It works, but was glitchy and slow.

I love this software, I got it to put on my 2011 MBP, and it runs flawlessly on it. I needed a Windows system to run for my job, and this provided me with that.

Great software that allows me to run Windows and other Intel based OS’s on my Mac. It runs as a Virtual Machine, so no rebooting necessary. It came with the installer on a flash drive, which was great. Setting up my first VM was easy - the software walked me through the process and I had a Windows VM in no time. Performance is good enough for my needs - Windows is responsive. Integration with the Mac is fine - meets my needs. The user interface for Fusion is clean and well-designed, with all options in reach while not being cluttered. In all I’m very happy with it.

Good, but a little complex for my tastes.

The best product to use on a MAC. Been a customer since it came out with no problems. My business computers all have this software.

I bought this for my new Mac. Im a new user to Mac and when I looked at the Specs I thought I was OK. Do NOT buy if you are on Mountain Lion. It is not suppose to work. I opened the box before I found this out and it cost me restocking. I will not deal with this company again. I plan to buy Parallel instead.

Fusion setup easy, works great, very happy. This was the easiest setup Ive ever had with a program like this. The only issue was when I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I had to upgrade to Fusion 5. Overall Fusion makes using Windows on a Mac as easy as running Windows on a PC. Ive never had a crash or problem.

1. For full disclosure, I use my mac (macbook pro and mac mini) with their native applications 99.95% of the time. Once in a very very blue moon, I have to utilize a windows application and thus thought this product might be helpful. Main point, Im not an expert in this arena. With that being said, setting up / installation was fairly benign and without getting into the nitty gritty, the product does what its supposed to do--> one is able to open up / work on / deal with windows based applications without a hitch. I wasnt doing any cpu intensive applications and thus perhaps there might be a performance decrement, but this worked well with macbook pro. Definitely a worthwhile product to have for those occasional or regular situations when one needs to utilize a windows application the mac. Well done.

This is a nice safe way of running windows programs on a Mac without committing yourself to percentages of disc space or having to start and stop the computer. It runs really well, particularly with my odd combination Windows and Microsoft and Corel programs, all from very different dates. Wouldnt swap it for anything else - and it suits an non-techie person like me.
