Both products support Windows 10, but Workstation 12 Pro will not allow you to virtualize OS X on your PC due to Apple's OS licensing restrictions. Workstation 12 Pro supports Windows, Linux and other VMWare virtual machines. VMWare claims support for over 200 operating systems. If you're virtualizing Windows, Workstation 12 Pro offers note-taking capabilities with the Edge browser. VMWare says that Workstation 12 Pro also supports touch, inking and USB 3.0 in the virtual machines. Users can configure their virtual machines to take advantage of up to 16 vCPUs, 64GB RAM, 8TB storage and 2GB video memory. It comes with support for DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.3, which opens the doors to new Microsoft features, such as the new PowerMap function in Excel. Workstation 12 Pro features up to three times faster suspend and resume time and improved graphics performance. Workstation 12 Player is a more basic version of Workstation 12 Pro.

VMWare says that Player is targeted at users who only need to run one or two virtual machines. The software comes without the ability to run as a server and you can't create restricted virtual machines, linked clones or access the virtual network editor. VMWare Fusion 8 is available for $79, and Fusion 8 Pro retails for $199. Users upgrading from Fusion 7 to Fusion 8 can pay the $49 upgrade price, and those upgrading from Fusion 7 Pro to Fusion 8 Pro can pay $119. The upgrade fee to migrate from Fusion 8 to Fusion 8 Pro is $119. #Mac os for vmware workstation 12 player upgrade VMWare highlights that one of the big differences between its Fusion 8 software and the rival Parallels Desktop 11 virtualization software is that Fusion 8 runs on a per-user licensing basis whereas Parallels charges per system.
