Thanks for the shoutout! Parallels has a huge competitive advantage right now and it makes no business sense for them to offer a free trial or to discount their rates, they have no competition in the Apple Silicon market! Every other alternative is half baked and has no GPU acceleration. Parallels Tech preview in November 2020 basically came fully formed and was fast enough to run a ton of games at decent framerates. I do hope more competition does come and reduce the prices which are very high and definitely puts new customers off. It's even worse when you consider that Parallels Pro is required to make use of more than 4 CPU cores and and more than 8GB of RAM (which is most M1 Pro and all M1 Max Apple Silicon Macs).
Sure! I really enjoy your channel and find it quite valuable. As for Parallels, yes it’s an advantage, for now. But those people that wouldn’t normally buy parallels COULD be onboarded if a free version was available. So instead of just a temporary competitive advantage, parallels could have a monopoly of sorts, and if they somehow enabled lock-in, then it would be over for all the other would-be competition.
@@AZisk Parallels has a free trial available for 15 days. It's the same download.
I run parallels on m1 max - no issues - push it quite a bit have not encountered any problems - I follow Andrew Tsai's installation for windows 11
Imagine being such a ass kisser
Couldn’t be me
Not just that but it got many problems while using kali
Exactly. Free versions / tires are used to expand market share. But parallels does neither have a market share nor a mind-share problem. On top: Free users cost money. Customer support, entitlement issues (bad word of mouth of people installing something even though they don’t understand the limitations) and the likelihood derailing feature requests by paying users vs free users.
Dude, I don’t care about a free version, just give me a pro version that gives me virtual ports for a one time payment, even if it’s $150. I just want to own the software I pay for, not rent it.
I love that you actually went over something else than benchmarks, and it veeeeery helpful
Always love his videos, always helpful, not ust following trends, but actually useful content for developers.
I'm really impressed that you give recommendations to check out other YT channels. It shows you have and abundance mindset, aren't afraid of your competition, but more importantly for the audience, it shows you simply want the best knowledge and experience for us. Subscribed.
I went for Parallels, and coming from VMware fusion, it was a positive surprise. Nowadays I'm testing UTM. It can emulate x64 operating systems but it's frustratingly slow. However with native arm64 OS the results seem very decent. I am not trying video games though. One downside is the absence of "suspend guest OS" function.
They know if you are buying a $2500 machine you would pay for any software if you don't have any options
Very good review, man. Been through this whole autumn for now. Appreciate Your work and effort. As I already mentioned somewhere before, VMWare Fusion just do not work with M1 and You prove it for loud mouths, who tried to shut me with dislikes. Thank You!
I used VMware workstation (for windows) and fusion (for Mac) for years…until I tried Parallels. The overall VM performance was better (not by much - but still better) and their UI support for metal is superior than VMware. I am happy with price of Parallels Professions because it is still cheaper than VMware Fusion Professional (even on their enterprise licensing scheme). Using Jump Desktop to remote into a native Windows machine is still the best solution (for me) for pure development tasks, but the ability in Parallels (and Fusion) to stand up a specific test scenario and quickly rollback to a known state makes it worth the money). Parallels is working on a x86 to arm hypervisor translation layer that will eventually (assuming they can get it to work) allow Apple silicon macs to run X86 VMs.
How do you find Jump Desktop compared to just a regular fee RDP connection into Windows? Does it feel smoother/look better?
I did try Windows 365 for a bit but the performance of the RDP connection was a bit disappointing compared to some of the Microsoft Demos I'd seen
@@DanielHarrisCodes Jump is an RDP client (it also does VNC). I like it much better than Microsoft’s RDP client because it takes up less resources, handles Window’s crappy scaling and high DPI profiles cleanly, remote machine profiles can be synced between different machines or between a team of people, and it is will run as a native ARM application (Microsoft RDP now has a native ARM port as well). As a bonus is runs beautifully on my iPad Pro (Microsoft RDP client is a bit clunky on the iPad).
Second Jump Desktop, after I found it years ago I stopped trying different RDP/VNC Mac clients. At the time MS was very slow to issue updates for issues and OS compatibility, not sure how they are now but I never looked back.
Snapshots definitely make VMware/parallels worth the price, but containers are starting to edge in on that, I use a mix of VMs and docker containers
Is possible to do Jump Desktop from a silicon chip using parallels pro to remote in my pc tower? Bc I don’t mind using parallels for the softwares I use but I’d love to connect through my mac back to my pc tower when I need the extra horse power
Or does the Jump Desktop computer you’re doing it form has to be native intel to do remote into another native windows computer?
Thanks!
With UTM you can emulate the x64 version of Windows/Linux (should be slow but working). It is also capable of running the arm version of Windows/Linux which should be fast (interesting if comparable with Parallels).
The underlying concept of Qemu is very popular and powerful to emulate a bunch of hardware devices including old gaming consoles. The idea is to rebuild hardware components in software which is slow but working fine.
Would be fun to test the performance of UTM!
@T3KKANッ there is the arm version as far as i know
the video I saw of UTM are amazing and is free
I tested utm on m1 mac for Kali Linux (arm version) and it works completely fine.
I've experienced UTM to be pretty unstable (crashes and network issues) for both arm64 as well as amd64 VMs on my M1 Pro Mac. Not going back to it at all :).
I think you need to research the difference between virtualization and emulation. Long story short, virtualization is about creating a virtual machine with the same instruction set as the host and emulation is running a different instruction set. Right now the only emulation platform that runs well under m1 is qemu. UTM is just a GUI wrapper around qemu. That’s why qemu/m1 can run x86 versions of windows 10/11. The main problem is emulation is software based and is slow, compared to virtualization which is hardware accelerated.
I used parallels trial version and it's pretty good but not free. I'd probably like UTM as I code. I had one query Alex. What are the progress regarding dual booting a Linux Distro on M1 or M1 Pro/Max? Can you make a video about the dual booting issue regarding the M1 Machines? The last time I heard Asahi Linux was working on it.
Looks like VMware is now offering an ARM version now and is currently FREE. I do have utm vm of Windows 11 currently up and running very nicely on an Apple 16 " Macbook Pro Max but it was not easy since you need to really have you ducks (read input options) lined up. Some information out there but not 100%, like wrong display choice can lead to crashing. At this point it is very stable.
I don't agree, they have a competitive advantage and should exploit it. It doesn't make sense from a business prospect!
Parallels is a huge help for me in my studies, but I wish they have discounts for students like me. Or give it for free! Today is the end of my 14 days trials, if I cancel my subscription, I could not finish my home works but the money is huge for me.
Have tried the VMware Fusion tech preview but network performance is horrendous. I can't seem to get anything out of the machine at more than 10mbps. Parallels seems to be full gigabit and works really well, far better than VirtualBox ever did on my Intel Mac and Windows machines.
Exactly this is my thoughts too a free version
Vmware heard you after a year. VMWare Fusion Player 13 is free for personal use now.
Not only they do not offer a toned-down free version, they're trying to force the subscription model by offering only a toned-down one-off purchase version. I hope UTM will get better fast, as it seems the only honest solution right now.
I have bought entry macbook pro m1 pro and i used to get vmware fusion.
my question is there is a way to damage my mac running this specific windows image thru parallels for apple silicon?
I wish parallels had a free tier. I only need it for a few hours a month so really not worth the cost. But hey let's see....
The only drawback of the M1. Bootcamp was so nice.
Waiting for Android Studio for a long time 🥲
There is one more option that is not getting enough attention and that is QEMU. It's not where it needs to be at the moment but I expect it to at least give a usable environment for development. I have a second laptop with Linux installed and I have a Beelink server also with Linux installed to give me some options in my home network.
Still havin’ plain old qemu with Hypervisor.framework acceleration on arm vms though…
I’m currently in the private beta testing for the Apple Silicon VMWare. It’s pretty lacking.
Does anyone know how to download parallels to an external hd? I am trying to play steam games that are windows based but even though I download to the external, it also downloads all gigs of memory to each game onto parallels which is on my Mac M1 hd. Very frustrating. M1 only has 256gig hd vs 2tb external. Please help!!! :)
I use Virtual Box to run Windows XP on my old intel Mac. I need XP to run old film scanners. Do you think UTM would allow me to install and run XP and the old scanner software.
Probably. I just tried an x86 Linux distro on an M1 Max using UTM and it was pretty slow. Usable if absolutely necessary but leagues away from a decent experience.
I don’t see how Parallels on M1 CPU’s is worth even close the money they were charging for it previously, since its so cut down compared to the x86 version.
yes bro
they should provide a free one for non-commercial use like vmware
Can you please update this video with the latest UTM 4.0, I heard there were improvements
Great video, do you know an M1 / ARM virtual platform that runs / supports Linux Red Hat OS? I tried Paralells, but I dont think it supports it, maybe im wrong.
I am happy with parralels 17. But I didn't find any use case to use windows arm except playing old games.
If we intall free Parallels it is less likely we will shift to VMware eventually. But if they come out concurrently... who knows?
Can u run kali linux VM on Macbook pro max??
Hey, do you know if we are still in the same scenario? Thanks
I have try UTM with FreeBSD, Debian, Alpine but it feels weird with no GPU acceleration.
UTM with right parameters will allow you to run x86_64 VMs with decent performance for none GPU tasks.
Oh?
You can install an x64 version of windows within it?
I use UTM because I only need the virtual machine for 1-2 apps so… yeah! If Parallels make a free version then I will go to Parallels
I have been struggling to get a good VM virtualization software that would actually install on my macbook pro with m1 pro chip... I need to use it for college work (ubuntu & kali linux)
Could someone remind me, please, what was the latest on dual-booting into Windows ARM? Is it possible now, or is it prevented by something? I might have missed it if it was mentioned in the video...
Bootcamp with Windows ARM isn’t supposed yet.
Microsoft has to put efforts to make it happen.
@@sasivarnan36 Thanks.
Does nswag studio works perfectly fine on windows mac m1 together with dotnet? If there's a software that's like nswag studio on m1, I'll totally ditch windows.
I want/need an x86_64 emulator, VMware, parallels, qemu, whatever, native M1 virtualising x64. VMware said they’re not going to offer it unfortunately guess there’s no market for that.
Their business model is probably now that they have zero competition, they will charge all these new MacOS users that need virtualization. They are probably making a ton of money right now. When a competent, alternative enters the market, THEN they’ll offer a free, scaled down version.
found a simpler way ... I have a free azure so used a virtualised azure environment through Remote Desktop
also was suppose to trade my intel 2015 MBPRO in I decided to stick with it in addition to my new MACBOOK PRO 16 1TB
Well we are in november. So Parallels will probably have a black friday sale soon. I mean it's not free but better than nothing.
Like ur recommendation.
Virtual box has been around since Gil amelio was c.e.o., of apple kudos for them for taking a step back from apple. the first ARM Microsoft surface could run 32 bit Intel apps via emulation.
Someone, can it run steam and AOE on M1 macbook air?
I think parallels needs a free version, or at least a cracked version should be available. If you want to use windows on your 2021 MacBooks, it seems to be the most reliable way by what I’ve seen on RUclips.
After parallels trial expires, just chenge system date before launch it. And set back after windows loaded.
When parallels show window "Trial expired" - just close it :) works!)))
@@alexandervotyakov Does it still working for you?
@@RockOnzxJ yes. Parallels 17.0.1. Windows 11. Macos 12.1, Air m1 8/512.
@@alexandervotyakov awesome, thank you!
Is there a chance to use parrarel for free? It is really expensive.
Tried Parallels, Never got My USB Dongles to work on it within the 2 week trial. It wasn't even enough time to troubleshoot enough and get another usb adapter to see if that was the issue. USB hard drives worked but not Dongles like an E-Licenser, iLok, Etc. This put me in a position to not even know if Parallels is worth buying when I can't get a basic usb device to work.
Hi, i also regret buying m1 16inch. I was far better on intel in terms of usb dongles and usb devices that i have to connect for automation equipments. Have u got any solution or tried any alternative to have it on windows.
Sure, there should be a free version that you can not modify the VM settings or some limitation.
I see Microsoft is not selling Windows-ARM, So if I use Parallels (v17) , in some time this ARM-Windows can stop working. Looks Microsoft sell Windows -ARM only with new Hardware.
What about CrossOver?
I'll be jumping off that cliff soon. I would like to know if I run windows 11 arm on a silicon mac using parallels - does anyone know if Microsoft SQL will server work ?
I’m sorry to say that it won’t work well if at all. For SQL Server use x64 or azure
@@AZisk What about docker ?
@@dindu42 docker itself works, but there might be images that don’t support arm. You have to check the architecture of the images you plan to use
Don’t move now. I did and regret buying m1 for now.
And MultiPass?
1:37 you totally lost me there already. Why would any Windows software need to be ARM ready when the whole point of getting a VM on M1 is to run _INTEL_X86_ applications? You're NOT making sense!!!
Even if Parallels did offer a free version, Microsoft does not and you are out the license fees for both if you want to run Windows on Mac. That’s probably why Parallels isn’t rushing to make a free / freemium tier. Heck, dunno if it’s still true but for years Microsoft made more money on Android than Google - basically blackmailing phone makers to buy Windows phone licenses for phones that don’t even have Windows.
Parallels has a free trial period .
Makes no sense unless MS releases software for windows on arm. Or at least SQL server for me personally is major.
If I can't own the software, I just don't pay a cent(yearly my ass), even less gonna pay 80$ for a version with so little that should be free
Yes! More free goodies
Waiting for android studio
This is truth
Yes I know it's there.

If they have no competition, why would would they give their product away?
To get people hooked. But perhaps the 14 day trial might do some of that
Andrew who? I want to see gaming on M1
Andrew Tsai
@@AZisk Ahh, found him. Thx :)
Why?
windows on virtualbox doesn't even work properly on intel macs, it's garbage. and then u have a selection of "graphics drivers" and all works terrible, things like basic things like moving windows is laggy and glitchy, taskbar can glitch out and it's a mess. Use VMware or Parallels. Tho now with M1, Parallels seem to have best for Windows and Linux desktop experience.
Honestly, Apple should do it themselves and take all the money. Hell If i was apple i'd do it and sell it as a $10 add on; free if i really wanted to be savage and just take Parallels business. Oh and probably a lot of windows users too.
Free trial is enough… free version would have to be so cut back it would be useless, then give a bad impression to anyone who tried it
👍
Because when you have a monopoly there is no reason to give away anything for free. When they have competition then I’m sure they will.
Most of the world is on Windows not because they went out and bought Windows
A Prostomer... Eehh, that sounds bad, xD
Free tier Parallels, run something minimal like FreeBSD or Debian. Never upgrade. Profit. LOL
This "Parallels" stuff is a excuse to do not a right software... EDIT: Such an image of the future, system-independent programs - ARM has it something.
Sure Everything should be free
I just can't imagine why I'd buy a Mac just to run my IDE in a Windows VM. Just... why?
Don’t. It’s not for you
Alexander actually you are a “prosumer”
Parallels is wayyyy too expensive I just gotta pirate it.
Windows on Mac: No.
I enjoy your videos, but I have to disagree on this one. A free version does them no good and harms the industry. Free versions get consumers to devalue software, and reduces the profit for all companies in the space. If the company doesn’t make enough money they will have to start laying off employees or even go under. It also makes for less competition and consumer choice, since they have to work much harder to make a profit and may not enter the space because of it.
To me they could do a limit of X hours a day/Week type of thing. I won't buy it for the amount of time I need to use it. I only use it for about 4 hours every 2 weeks. to me it's not worth the cost.
Paralles is the worst software company I have ever seen, not one of them. Parallels Desktop will stop working after any macOS release update. And this is a soft limit, which means their software detects the current OS version and stops running if it is too high, even if the technically possible that the macOS upgrade does not break compatibility. Simply put, they want (and force) users to purchase their latest software version once for every updated version of the operating system. Unlike Windows, macOS release updates every year.

@@AZisk What I would be interested in is, if it's possible to run ARM windows in a parallels machine on an ARM Mac and then run all those tools on this windows, that one needs for legacy reasons like for configuring your led strip, dishwasher, whatever and those tools where build for x86. I have lots of them on my Intel Mac with virtual box and windows 7. One of these tools even requires a MS SQL server in the background
You need to have VMware fusion, and you can install the public preview and it’s working « fine » for Linux but for windows, it’s not great
