I like how VMware Fusion allows us to run different operating systems on a Mac without affecting the main system. The setup is fairly straightforward, and switching between environments is smooth. It's very useful for quick testing and debugging, especially when we need to replicate issues across different OS versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing that could be improved in VMware Fusion is performance when running heavier workloads or multiple virtual machines at the same time. It can sometimes slow down depending on system resources. Also, advanced configuration options are not always very intuitive, so it may take some time to fine-tune settings for optimal performance.

I use VMware Fusion to run Windows and Linux on MacOS, which is great for testing desktop apps and server configurations. I appreciate its ease of use, and it doesn't consume too many resources on my MacBook Pro. It's very stable; I've never had it hang or crash. I like how it quickly starts Windows and Linux, and it's more cost-effective compared to running VMs in the cloud since I use it for testing purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using VMware Fusion for a long time as it helps me to install other operating systems like Kali, Ubuntu, etc., for my study purposes. The best thing about VMware is the snapshot feature, which helps me revert to a previous state if something goes wrong. Another thing is that once you install it, you get the default maximize screen, similar to what you can get in VirtualBox software. It can be easily installed on any OS.

Windows 10 Image is not working with latest version of VMware Fusion on M1/M2 Chipsets and must install windows 11 which will not help us at present, because most of the systems are still using windows 10 due to compatibility with internal tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
