I have used Fusion to run my personal Windows applications (like Outlook and the VMware vSphere Client) on my Mac, in Unity mode, and I have used Fusion to run even virtual ESXi 5. In fact, from an aesthetic point of view, Fusion is far superior to Workstation. Fusion is sleek and impressive, like you would expect from a Mac OS X app.
My Experience with Fusion 4Īfter being a longtime Workstation user, I’ve been trying to use Fusion 4 now for the last 2 months and have enjoyed it. Fusion is similar to VMware Workstation in many ways, however there are also numerous features on Workstation, that you would expect to find in Fusion, but they just aren’t there. In Scott Lowe’s new article VMware Fusion 4: Top to Bottom, Scott covers all the latest features of Fusion 4 including: new HW version, improved graphics, VM encryption, how to pause a VM, Mac OS dock integration, application menu, mission control, and running Mac OS X Lion in a VM.
