A common VMware hypervisor enables easy portability
Introducing VMware Workstation Pro VMware Workstation Pro is the industry standard for running multiple operating systems as virtual machines (VMs) on a single Linux or Windows PC. IT professionals, developers, and businesses that build, test, or demonstrate software for any device, platform, or cloud rely on Workstation Pro. Workstation Pro delivers a data center in your laptop. VMware Workstation Pro Features Sphere Connectivity Use Workstation Pro to connect to vSphere, ESXi, or other Workstation Pro servers. Control remote Linux or Windows (and other) virtual machines, control power operations, or move virtual machines to and from vSphere environments.
Use “full clones” to create fully isolated duplicates that can be shared with others
Fast Cloning Save time and effort and ensure an exact duplicate when creating the same virtual machine configuration repeatedly. Use “linked clones” to quickly duplicate a virtual machine while significantly reducing physical disk space. Useful Snapshots Create a restore point to revert to on the fly, perfect for testing unfamiliar software or creating customer demos. Multiple snapshots make it easy to test a variety of different scenarios without having to install multiple operating systems. Powerful Virtual Networking Create complex IPv4 or IPv6 virtual networks for virtual machines, or integrate with third-party software to design complete data center topologies using real-world routing software and tools.
New to Workstation is network simulation to introduce packet loss, latency, and bandwidth restrictions
High-performance 3D graphics VMware Workstation Pro supports DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.3, delivering a smooth, responsive experience when running 3D applications. You can run the most demanding 3D applications like AutoCAD or SOLIDWORKS with near-native performance in a Windows virtual machine. High-resolution display support Workstation Pro is optimized to support high-resolution 4K UHD (3840×2160) displays for desktops and QHD+ (3200×1800) displays used in x86-based laptops and tablets. It also supports multiple monitors with different DPI settings, such as a new 4K UHD display with an existing 1080p HD display. Cross-compatibility Create Linux or Windows virtual machines that can run across the entire VMware product portfolio, or create restricted virtual machines for use in Horizon FLEX.
Shared Virtual Machines Quickly share and test applications in a simulated production environment
We even support the open standard so you can create and play virtual machines from other vendors. Monster Virtual Machines Create massive virtual machines with up to 16 vCPUs, 8TB of virtual disks, and 64GB of memory to run the most demanding desktop and server applications in a virtualized environment. Give graphics-intensive applications an extra boost by allocating up to 2GB of available host video memory to a virtual machine. Restricted Virtual Machine Access Protect corporate content by restricting access to desktop virtual machine settings, such as drag-and-drop, copy-and-paste, and USB device connections. Virtual machines can be encrypted and password-protected to ensure only authorized users have access.
