Run Windows, Linux and BSD virtual machines on a Windows or Linux desktop with VMware Workstation Pro, the industry standard desktop hypervisor.

Build Virtual Machines on the Desktop
Build, test and demo software across an array of different devices, platforms and clouds. IT professionals, developers and businesses rely on Workstation Pro every day to support their projects and customers. Workstation Pro makes it easy to run complex local virtual environments to simulate operating systems, platforms and clouds, all from the same desktop PC.

Run VMs and Containers on a Single PC
Deploy local OCI containers and Kubernetes clusters with VM isolation, virtual networking and virtual resource options through the new vctl CLI tool.

Develop and Test for Any Platform
Fix more bugs and ship quality code on time using Workstation Pro in development and testing. Virtualize nearly any x86 operating system available today on a desktop PC.

Enjoy Baked-In vSphere and ESXi Support
Run ESXi and vCenter as virtual machines on the desktop, and connect to a remote vSphere environment for quick VM access and basic management tasks.

Run Secure and Isolated Desktops
Run a secure second desktop with different privacy settings, tools and networking configurations for online protection, or to take “snapshots” that can be restored later.

Workstation Pro Features
Virtual Machines
Rely on the same hypervisor technology that powers vSphere to run virtual machines and guest operating systems.

High-Performance 3D Graphics
Gain a fluid and responsive experience for running 3D applications. Workstation Pro now supports DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 in virtual machines and games.

Containers and Kubernetes Clusters
Developers on Windows have a new CLI tool, vctl, that can build and run containers and Kubernetes clusters with VM-level isolation and networking.

Powerful Virtual Networking
Create and configure complex IPv4 and IPv6 virtual networks for VMs, with added network latency and bandwidth simulations to help recreate real-world scenarios.
