2.0 out of 5 stars Decent VM / support sucks
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2022
It’s runs decent on the Mac. The fan kicks off when parallels runs on my Mac so it takes up cpu and ram.

Unless you have an active license forget about getting support. No phone calls and messages doesn’t get answered. I’d go with oracle fusion or something else

1.0 out of 5 stars Won't last long...
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2022
I purchased this in May 2022 to play some PC games on my macbook, and I'm already learning that the version that I own won't be compatible with the next OS update from Apple due in October. How can a company justify selling software that only works for 5 months?
