They could use a better platform for set up and options for configuration. If your an experienced user with Apple it may not be a big deal. If your a novice. You'll want to call in to get help with proper set up.

This program is necessary to run Windows 10 on a MAC, or so I was told by the salesperson. It's difficult to switch from Windows back to MAC, and it wouldn't install for me so I had to pay some geek $129.00 to install it so I could operate my insurance business.

The installation was a bit hard (3 hours) due to my Mac freezing up , but once I restarted it was a breeze. Now I can use my MacBook to do MP2016 courses and projects to get my PMP Certificate!

I purchased Parallels to run Windows on my Mac. I have used VMware Fusion in the past, but decided to try Parallels out instead. I'm impressed with how well integrated Parallels is with Mac OS. It's been stable and fast. You can't go wrong.

This version seems to be more responsive and quicker with El capitan and Newer versions of MAC OS. I'm running Sierra. My MAC is early 2013 with 8G RAM. If you are running 16G then you will work even faster.
