What do you like best about VMware Workstation Player?

I like how VMware Workstation just works. Unlike other VM Applications VMware just works. For example transferring files from Desktop Workstation to the VM is seemless and in general it runs well also. The UI is also the best ever and no other VM applications match it.

What do you dislike about VMware Workstation Player?

There isn't very much that I dislike. Maybe the only thing I don't like is that occasionally when you close a VM it just freezes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VMware Workstation Pro?

VMWare Workstation is a tool that makes it easy to test anything software related. If I want to test a compatibility I can load the programs or services and it will allow me to easily see if it'll work. If it doesn't I can always undo the changes and try again. Not many tools are this easy to use nor are they as well made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VMware Workstation Pro?

Managing VM's can be a bit tricky. They've made things easier in latest versions and builds but replicating a VM or removing it is still a bit of a task and could be simplified further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VMware Workstation Pro?

I love VMWare pro because is a software that is fairly easy to use: the most exciting use of VMWare Pro is tthat it allows anyone to create a virtual machine in order to prevent virus. This is possible due to that you create a "new computer" inside your computer. What I also like is that it´s failry easy to create these virtual machines with VMWare Pro, as the only things needed are the operating system (inside CD or USB), a bit of knowledge of how a computer works, and that´s technically all you need. And if your virtual machine gets infected, you just need to erase it and create a new one, and VMWare gives you the option to do that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VMware Workstation Pro?

What some users might dislike a bit about using VMWare pro is that, even when it´s fairly easy to use, they need a bit of knowledge about how a computer works (knowledge of RAM memory, Processrs, etc.). It would be awesome if VMWare created a new version of their software where creating a new virtual machine is as easy as inserting the operating system on CD or USB and then just click "create a new virtual machine". This is the only thing that this software lacks, and I dislike that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VMware Workstation Player?

I prefer the workstation pro version, but in case you need to install in a secondary machine and you don't need to build a new vmdk , or you just need to play a vmware virtual machine, this is the version right for you.

Every new release is more reliable, this program is a must have for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
