The industry-leading desktop hypervisor. Following Broadcom's acquisition, Workstation Pro is now completely free for personal and commercial use as of late 2024. It offers unmatched 3D graphics acceleration (DirectX 11/OpenGL 4.3), sophisticated virtual networking, and seamless integration with vSphere. While the 'Pro' features are now free, Broadcom has shifted its support focus toward enterprise-scale Cloud Foundation customers.
