Overall Satisfaction with Parallels Desktop
I use Parallels Desktop to access Windows on my Mac. There are eLearning and local government design applications that require the exclusive use of the Windows OS and this has helped me to not need to have two computers, but work on one machine with access to both operating systems. Additionally, on occasions there are colleagues who require support on their computers and I can replicate the problem they may have on the operating system they are running in a friendly and very fast way.
- Windows loads and runs even faster than on a PC
- I can access any OS from within my macOS session.
- It does not consume too many resources and I can multitask.
- The use of external storage devices are always seen as local hard disks and this makes it difficult to manage certain mobile information.
- The weight of the Windows load files are very large and it is like having a complete computer with the OS loaded on the hard disk of my local machine.
- The cost of the Parallel Desktop licence is much less than the cost of a dedicated Windows machine and I can work all on one device.
The decision was based on ease of use, price and technical support.
