Currently, upgrades to Version 12 from older versions of VMware Fusion cost $79 for Player and $99 for Pro. You will need to pay if you ever want to upgrade to a new whole-number version of VMware Fusion, however. VMware Fusion primarily functions as a traditional license-based app, meaning you buy it once and own it forever. You also get the ability to encrypt or clone a VM. With this tier, you get network customization and simulation features, plus the option to connect to VMware’s vSphere cloud-based hypervisor tool. VMware Fusion Pro is slightly more expensive at $199. If you intend to use VMware Fusion Player for commercial use, a license costs $149. The latter is free for personal or non-commercial use, which makes it the obvious first choice for users who don’t want to pay for virtualization software. VMware Fusion comes in two versions: a full professional version called VMware Fusion 12 Pro and a lightweight version called VMware Fusion Player. The company has two other products, Workstation Pro and Workstation Player, for creating and running VMs on Windows or Linux computers. This review looks at VMware Fusion Pro Version 12, which is specifically for macOS. Parallels also runs noticeably faster than VMware Fusion. While VMware Fusion is an excellent piece of software for many use cases, Parallels Desktop remains our Editors' Choice winner among virtualization software, because it's currently the only practical choice for Apple Silicon machines. Enterprise-level management systems and controls round out VMware's feature set.
VMware's no-cost solution for personal use is noteworthy, too, because scores of compatible, prebuilt systems are available for free online.
Its apps work smoothly, and we like that the VMs you create with the Mac version of the software can also run on Windows and Linux devices.
