#Vmware workstation 12 pro review pro
VMWare says that Workstation 12 Pro also supports touch, inking and USB 3.0 in the virtual machines. If you're virtualizing Windows, Workstation 12 Pro offers note-taking capabilities with the Edge browser. VMWare claims support for over 200 operating systems. Workstation 12 Pro supports Windows, Linux and other VMWare virtual machines. Both products support Windows 10, but Workstation 12 Pro will not allow you to virtualize OS X on your PC due to Apple's OS licensing restrictions. Workstation 12 Pro comes with similar support as Fusion 8 for Mac. VMWare is rebranding its prior Workstation release to the Workstation Pro moniker this year, and the previous Player Pro now becomes Workstation Player. PC users can virtualize Windows and Linux using VMWare's Workstation 12 Pro or Workstation Player. Workstation 12 Pro and Workstation Player Enterprise customers with Mac deployments can take advantage of added features on Fusion 8 Pro, such as faster virtual machine suspend and resume time, improved VoIP support, support for complex virtual networks and vCloud Air to run your virtual machine in the cloud. You'll have access to accelerated 3D graphics with support for DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.3 for better performance compared to prior releases of Fusion.įusion 8 allows users to virtualize OS X as well, allowing users to run Yosemite as their main OS and virtualize El Capitan, for example.
