  • Wizard makes it easier than ever to get started, even for novice users. Seamlessly runs Windows alongside Mac OS X. Simple to migrate from PC to Mac. Complete OS X Lion support.
  • No discount on Windows 7 when buying downloadable version. Can’t use Snow Leopard 10.6 as a VM (only possible with expensive Server edition). Parallels Mobile iOS app no longer free. OS X Lion guest OS requires Lion.
  • While Parallels and VMware will continue to spar for the foreseeable future over whose software has the best performance, it’s hard to imagine topping the terrific Parallels Desktop 7 when it comes to installation, sheer ease of use, and tight Mac in...

  • Seamless blending of OS X and Windows 7, Can run Windows programs in OS X without any problems, No driver issues
  • Hardware performance is lowered due to virtual environment
  • Parallels Desktop 7 is a wonderful piece of software that offers a convenience that's never before seen. Not only does it allow access to both Windows and OS X operating systems simultaneously, it does so with an elegant ease. Not having to save our work,...

  • Parallels really went the extra mile with Desktop 7 for Mac. You can see it in the simplest of details like the on-the-fly icon changes for Windows executable files. They appear with small parallel lines on top of the icon. Users are always com...
