Good compatibility generally, but you need to test specific applications!

Allows some Windows applications to run on MacOS without issues, performance improves all the time, vendor is very responsive to suggestions and comments, and product is relatively cheap (when compared to a Windows license plus a VM). The ability to run Windows applications on a machine with the new Apple M1 processor is very useful - although a lot of the business apps you'd like to use (like MS office) are limited in their operation. I'd strongly recommend you search for the specific application you wish to use, or download the demo and try, before purchasing!

Excellent alternative to running a Windows OS in VM or bare metal.

I love how simple it is to set up a crossover bottle. Setup takes away a lot of the frustration of manually setting up a wine instance to run applications like Office or Access.

Good for running windows Apps on MacOSX but no replacement for a Virtual Machine

Some applications just run perfectly out of the box after installing, and it's great to have a Windows application running without effort and without running a Virtual Machine, for my use cases, it works very well since it saves me time and allows me to run some tests but don't expect that to happen often.
