What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to use windows programs on my mac, while being able to seamlessly switch between the Mac OS and Windows OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times, the program is buggy and I need to restart. This is a rare occurrence, however. I am overall very pleased with the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love Apple products, I consider my self an "Apple guy." However, I am also a business guy and the fact of the matter is Microsoft Office (and other business applications) are much better suited for the Windows operating systems. By being able to run Windows OS on my Mac, I get the best of both worlds, at the same time. I love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Installation at times can be tricky. When I had issues, I tried performing google searches to figure out what was wrong. I spent hours trying to troubleshoot the issue. I ultimately called Parallels tech support and they were so helpful. I would recommend that people just go ahead and call if they have issues.

Also, some of the shortcuts are not set up great in the Windows environment (for example, it makes more sense for the command button to act as the control key). I would recommend that users make modifications to the shortcuts early on to what feels right to them, instead of just accepting the defaults.
