This has been an issue for months, and VMware couldn't care less. I can edit the Unit file to fix this, but I don't want to do this for every Linux VM. Turns out there is a bug in VMware Tools / Open-Vm-Tools where a race condition occurs because the VM Tools are loaded before the graphical session is loaded. It basically makes me manually fuck with my resolution settings EVERY TIME I resize the window, does not remember my settings upon login, etc. I have spent days trying to fix a display resolution issue with VMware, and there doesn't seem to be a real fix. I never thought I would say this, but even though Parallels mainly caters to Windows, I am actually getting better Linux support out of Parallels than Fusion.*Ignore this one below if you aren't tech-savvy* Parallels 'Cohesion Mode' > Fusion's 'Unity Mode'. Parallels also is big on joining your VM and Host OS's together, which I cannot stand, but I imagine I am an outlier on this one.įusion has better network configuration tools, but Parallels has really really improved over the years, so they might be closer. Parallels is probably easier to use, especially with Windows, but I prefer Fusion's GUI. Parallels preforms better under light gaming, but I wouldn't recommend using a VM for gaming by any means. It plays well with all of VMware's other services like server virtualization software, their cloud products, and their Windows/Linux counterpart ( VMware Workstation). The beauty of VMware is that it is pretty enterprise driven. I wouldn't use Parallels in a group setting unless everyone was using Parallels. VMware does not have this strict of a limitation, if any at all.Īs far as start-up, suspend, restart, and shutdown times? Parallels beats the hell out of Fusion. My benchmark scores have Fusion having a bit better benchmarks, however, iirc correctly, it was basically insignificant.įusion beats Parallels when it comes to needing to run the program on multiple machines.
playing with various operating systems to become more familiar with them, light development, etc.? Then I'd probably just run with VirtualBox. Simple things like text-editing, excel, etc.
