<h2>Rock Solid Stability</h2>
|

<p>
|
|
The VMware hypervisor has been in production use since 1999.
|
|
All their products share the same, robust core that powers
|
|
the world's largest organizations. With the VMware provider, Vagrant
|
|
now runs on the strength of the same foundation.

<h2>Uncompromised Portability</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
VMware virtual machines run on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux.
|
|
Vagrant provides support for both VMware Fusion (Mac OS X) and
|
|
VMware Workstation (Linux and Windows), which are able to run
|
|
the same virtual machines across multiple platforms.

<h2>Professional Support</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Every purchase of the Vagrant VMware provider comes with
|
|
direct email support. VMware products themselves are eligible for
|
|
professional support from VMware. Someone always has your back
|
|
in case things are not working as well as they should be.

<h2>♥ Open Source</h2>
|

|
|
<p>
|
|
Vagrant is free and open source. While the VMware providers

are not, the revenue is used to continue to develop, support,
|
|
and grow Vagrant and the community around it.

<h2>Do I need to pay for upgrades to my license?</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Vagrant VMware plugin licenses are valid for specific VMware
|
|
product versions at the time of purchase. When new versions of
|
|
VMware products are released, significant changes to the plugin code
|
|
are often required to support this new version. For this reason, you
|
|
may need to upgrade your current license to work with the new
|
|
version of the VMware product. Customers can check their license
|
|
upgrade eligibility by visiting the
|
|
<a href="http://license.hashicorp.com/upgrade/vmware2015">License Upgrade Center</a>
|
|
and entering the email address with which they made the original
|
|
purchase.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please note: your existing license will continue to work with all
|
|
previous versions of the VMware products. If you do not wish to
|
|
update at this time, you can rollback your VMware installation to an
|
|
older version.

<h2>Why is the Vagrant VMware plugin not working with my trial version of VMware Fusion/Workstation?</h2>

While we have not been able to isolate to a specific issue or cause,

the Vagrant VMware Fusion and Vagrant VMware Workstation plugins are

products.

Please try restarting your computer and running the VMware software

manually. Occassionally you must accept the license agreement before

VMware will run. If you do not see any errors when opening the

<h2>Can I use VMware Workstation Player?</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<em>Some</em> features of the Vagrant VMware Workstation plugin will
|
|
work with VMware Player, but it is not officially supported. Vagrant
|
|
interacts with VMware via the VMware API, and some versions of
|
|
VMware Workstation Player do not support those APIs. When in doubt,

|
please purchase VMware Workstation Pro to use all the features
|

supported by the integration.

<h2>Do I need VMware Fusion/Workstation Pro or just the regular version?</h2>

|
The Vagrant VMware plugin is compatible with both the regular and

Pro versions of VMware Fusion and VMware Workstation. However, some
|
|
advanced features (such as linked clones), are only supported by the
|
|
Pro versions of the VMware software.
