Detailed description

VMware Workstation Pro allows you to run multiple operating systems on a Windows or Linux computer in virtual machines (including Windows virtual machines).

VMware Workstation Pro turns your laptop into a data center

Run multiple operating systems on the same computer

VMware Workstation Pro allows you to run multiple operating systems simultaneously on the same Windows or Linux computer. Create Linux and Windows virtual machines on other computers, servers, or tablets with full network virtualization and simulation of specific network connectivity settings. Use virtual machines to develop, test, architect solutions, demonstrate program capabilities, and more.

Development and testing on any platform

Workstation Pro supports hundreds of operating systems and works with cloud and container technologies, such as Docker.

Connect to VMware vSphere

Securely connect to vSphere, ESXi, and other Workstation servers to run and manage virtual and physical machines. The VMware hypervisor improves productivity and simplifies the migration of virtual machines to another computer.

Secure and isolated environments

Run an additional system with specific privacy settings, tools, network settings and use specialized tools to investigate OS vulnerabilities. Workstation provides one of the most secure hypervisors in the industry and powerful features for computer security experts.

VMware Workstation Pro Features

Connect to vSphere

Use Workstation Pro to connect to vSphere, ESXi, and other Workstation Pro servers. Remotely manage Linux and Windows virtual machines, use machine power management commands, and migrate virtual machines to vSphere environments. The VMware hypervisor ensures easy portability.

Pictures

Create restore points to roll back changes when testing and creating demos quickly. Snapshots simplify the process of testing different use cases without having to install multiple operating systems.

High-performance 3D graphics

VMware Workstation Pro supports DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.3 standards for optimal performance when running 3D applications. You can run the most demanding 3D applications, such as AutoCAD or SOLIDWORKS, in virtual machines and get performance comparable to a physical machine.

Support for high-resolution screens

Workstation Pro is optimized to support 4K high-resolution UHD displays (3840×2160), used in desktop monitors and QHD+ (3200×1800) displays used in laptops and tablets. Workstation Pro supports multiple monitors with different screen resolutions, such as a 4K UHD monitor and a regular HD monitor.

Cross-compatibility

Create Linux or Windows virtual machines that can run on any VMware product, or create limited virtual machines in Horizon FLEX. Even an open standard for creating and running virtual machines from other developers is supported.

Cloning

Save time and effort by creating an exact duplicate of the virtual machine. Use Linked Clones to duplicate a virtual machine and save physical disk space quickly. Use the “Full Clones” option to create fully isolated duplicates with the ability to exchange and transfer.

Powerful virtual networks

Create complex IPv4 or IPv6 virtual networks for virtual machines, or integrate with third-party software to develop a data center topology using real-time routing software and tools. The new version of Workstation introduces network emulation to impose limits on loss, latency, and packet bandwidth.

Powerful virtual machines

Create massive virtual machines with up to 16 processors, 8 TB of virtual disks, and 64 GB 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 2 GB of available host system video memory.

Limited access to virtual machines

Protect corporate content by restricting access to virtual machine settings such as dragging, copying, pasting, and connecting to USB devices. Virtual machines can be encrypted and password-protected to allow access only to authorized users.

Sharing

Share and test applications in a virtualized environment. Run VMware Workstation Pro as a server to share the storage of preloaded Linux and Windows virtual machines with your colleagues, department, or the entire organization.
