With a system virtualization solution you can run multiple VMs with different OSes and different versions of a same OS, more flexible and usable: Of course you can use the native Boot Camp function instead of a system virtualziation products: in this way you can have a native OS, but you loose the flexibility of switch between multiple systems, because it’s almost a dual boot functions (for more information see how Parallels is better than the simple Boot Camp). The main user case could be run Windows environments in a MacOSX system. Not the only one (for example there is also VMware Fusion), but quite interesting and almost cheap (or comparable with other solutions). If you have a Mac, probably it’s a vendor that you have to consider for their solutions and products.Īnd if you want to use system virtualization locally on your Mac, then Parallels Desktop it’s a good option. Parallels is a well know company in the virtualization ecosystem and has some interesting solutions: Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac (to run Windows and other OSes on your Mac), Parallels Access (a simple remote access to your Windows or Mac computer from anywhere), Parallels Mac Management for Microsoft SCCM (able to extend your existing SCCM infrastructure to discover, enroll, and manage Mac computers the same way you do PCs, all through a single pane of glass), all 2X Software solutions and products ( Parallels has acquired this company on Feb 2015) and Odin (formally the cloud service called Parallels Service Provider Business).
