I have been using Mac OS Sierra for some time now, ever since I started working in digital media marketing campaigns. The iCloud and Documents features have been a real relief for me when it comes to organization and storage—they’re truly great. While I enjoy many other aspects of the system, those features are by far the most beneficial for my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not happy that it’s outdated and no longer gets security updates. That’s a major concern for me, particularly given the existence of infiltration tools like Pegasus, which was developed by the NSA in Israel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like using macOS Sierra for both personal and work purposes. It makes transferring files to and from Apple devices very easy, and I can quickly move things from my phone to my computer. I also like how much you can customize the desktop view and home bar. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the new things I really like about macOS Sierra is the integration of Siri on Mac, which makes multitasking easier, like searching files or checking quick updates without leaving my work. Another useful feature is Universal Clipboard, where I can copy something on my iPhone and instantly paste it on my Mac, which saves a lot of time during coding and project work. I also find iCloud Drive Desktop and Documents sync very helpful, because it keeps all my important files accessible across devices. And lastly, the Optimized Storage feature is something I appreciate since it automatically manages space by storing older files in iCloud and freeing up local storage.

One area where macOS Sierra can improve is in the availability and compatibility of apps. Many apps and games are either costly or not supported on macOS compared to other platforms, which sometimes limits flexibility for students and developers. The Mac App Store still lacks a wide variety of apps, and some professional tools or games require extra effort to install. Another improvement could be in thermal management—since many Mac models don’t include cooling fans or advanced vapor chamber systems, heavy tasks like coding, running simulations, or gaming can cause performance drops and occasional lag. If Apple improves app support and optimizes performance during high workloads, the overall user experience would be much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

macOS Sierra delivers a perfect blend of speed, simplicity, and smart features. Siri integration on Mac is a game-changer, making everyday tasks faster - whether it’s searching files, sending messages, or checking info hands-free. iCloud Drive sync works seamlessly across all Apple devices, and the overall UI feels clean, responsive, and stable. The small touches like Universal Clipboard and Auto Unlock with Apple Watch add real convenience that improves productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Sierra is great overall, some legacy apps initially faced compatibility issues, and older Mac models can feel slightly slower after the upgrade. Storage management suggestions are helpful, but some options can be confusing for casual users. Apart from these minor points, most features work smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside of macOS Sierra is that some older applications and hardware may have compatibility issues after updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the native picture in picture on macOS Sierra. Being able to watch a video while I'm checking my email is a huge advantage. Additionally, the introduction of auto unlock through the Apple Watch is a big advantage for me. The initial setup of macOS Sierra was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The experience with Siri is not so perfect. I would like to see more efficient models like Gemini or ChatGPT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the spotlight search. It is easy to search for things on the computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike it a lot. It seems to change features that Windows users are used to just for the sake of changing something. For example, you cannot copy and paste in directories. Navigating directories is hard for no reason. You cannot change between applications like in Windows with alt + tab (they offer an alternative but it is inferior in my opinion). I dislike the fact that you cannot copy and paste in the Finder. I also hate that navigating directories in Finder is hard. The initial setup was difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
