Get Maximum Performance for Windows 7
VMware Workstation 7 is optimized for maximum performance when running on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 PCs. Supports Flip 3D
and Aero Peek to show live thumbnails of your virtual machines. Run legacy application with 3D graphics, faster performance,
and tighter desktop integration better than Windows XP Mode. Get shared folders and drag and drop convenience.

Gain an Indispensable Tool
Automate and streamline tasks to save time and improve productivity. Run applications in Linux, Windows, and more at the same
time on the same PC with no rebooting. Evaluate and test new operating systems, applications and patches in an isolated environment.
Demonstrate complex software applications on a single laptop in a repeatable, reliable manner. Rich integration with Visual Studio,
Eclipse, and the SpringSource Tool Suite make it incredibly easy to debug applications on multiple platforms.

Run Your Most Demanding Applications on the Most Advanced Virtualization Platform
Create virtual machines with up to 8 virtual processors or 8 virtual cores, 2 TB virtual disks and up to 32 GB of memory per
virtual machine to run the most demanding applications. Protect your virtual machines from prying eyes with 256-bit AES encryption
and smart card authentication.

Award-winning
Backed by over a decade of proven engineering, VMware Workstation is trusted by millions of users worldwide. The company has won
more than 200 awards for its industry-leading software, with over 50 awards for VMware Workstation. In addition to winning
InfoWorld’s 2009 “Best Desktop Virtualization Tool,” Visual Studio Magazine Reader’s Choice for “Best Software Development
Product” awards, VMware Workstation has been inducted into the Jolt Hall of Fame.

More Reasons at a Glance

Seamlessly Integrated
Unity mode integrates applications from within your Windows & Linux virtual machines and makes them appear like they are running
on your native desktop. User friendly features such as the ability to cut and paste pictures, drag and drop email attachments,
and driver-less printing make it easy to work in a virtual machine.

Snapshots and Clones: The Ultimate Time Saver
Snapshots preserve the state of a virtual machine so you can return to it at any time. Snapshots are useful when you need to revert
your virtual machine to a prior, stable system state. Workstation makes it easy to find and revert to a previously saved snapshot.

Installing operating systems and applications can be time consuming. With clones, you can make many copies of a virtual machine
from the baseline installation and configuration. This makes it fast and simple to maintain standardized computing environments
for employees and students, or to create a baseline configuration for testing.

Run Multi-tiered Applications on a Single PC
Manage multiple, network-connected virtual machines with Teams. Teams make it easy to start and run complex multi-tier enterprise
applications on a single PC with just a click of the mouse.

Rewind and Replay Until You Find the Bug
Diagnose non-deterministic bugs with the Replay Debugging technology integrated into Visual Studio and Eclipse. Test your applications
in a virtual machine while “recording” and then let the developer step through the recording with a debugger attached. Never again will
there be a non-reproducible bug.
