As you’ll see next, Parallels 11 arrives with its own share of new features centered around the new technologies in Windows 10 and the upcoming update for OS X, 10.11 El Capitan. While certain graphics tests and VM management functions fared slightly better in Parallels 10, the 2014 release was primarily a feature-focused one, with Parallels 10 offering deeper integration between Windows and OS X services, along with easier setup and configuration options. Regular readers will recall that Parallels 10, released in August 2014, didn’t offer much in terms of performance improvements over Parallels 9. Until then, however, we’ll take a close look at what Parallels 11 brings to the table compared to its year-old predecessor, Parallels 10, and see how both compare to native performance via Boot Camp. It’s this latter metric that we’ll be looking at today, as a continuation of our yearly VM performance benchmark analysis.Ī new version of VMware Fusion is expected to be released shortly, and we’ll be sure to pit Parallels 11 benchmarks against Fusion 8 when the time comes.

We’ll take a brief look at the new Parallels 11 features later on, but we, like many users, are also interested in performance.

This type of software gives users the benefits of accessing applications that are not available for OS X while still maintaining easy, simultaneous access to Apple’s desktop operating system. For those unfamiliar with the virtualization software category, Parallels (and competitors such as VMware Fusion and VirtualBox) allows users to run Windows and other x86-based operating systems directly from within OS X, without the need to reboot using a tool like Apple Boot Camp. Parallels this week continued the yearly upgrade cycle for its popular OS X virtualization software with the release of Parallels Desktop 11 (hereafter referred to simply as “Parallels 11”). The current version – version 17 – has been optimized for the latest Windows 10 and macOS Big Sur (11.0) update, allowing users to run thousands of Windows apps like Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer, among others.Parallels 11 Benchmarks vs.

Parallels® Desktop Pro Edition is used by more than seven million people worldwide. That’s a savings of 20% from its MSRP ($99). For a limited time, you can purchase a one-year subscription to this program for just $79.99. That is, unless you’ve used Parallels® Desktop Pro Edition, which allows users to simultaneously run both macOS and Windows on their Mac computer. Unfortunately, you’d have to purchase either or to enjoy those benefits. While each computing titan has served its base well, many have found aspects from both that they like. Both companies have tried-and-true customer bases to prove it. For years, Apple and Windows have been leaders in the PC and laptop spaces.

Coke or Pepsi? Nike or Reebok? McDonald’s or Burger King? Chevy or Ford? The list goes on, as each product has its pros and cons. With any good product, there’s always going to be a debate about which one is best.
