Run Windows on Ubuntu with Parallels Desktop M1

If you're looking to run Windows on your Ubuntu machine, Parallels Desktop M1 is a great option. With its Pro and Business versions, you can enjoy a kiosk-like rollback feature that allows you to run an emulated system without saving any changes when it shuts down. The Business version also offers centralized management and a single volume license for multiple machines.

For those who need graphics- or math-intensive Windows software, the Pro version is the way to go. The Standard version supports virtual machines with 8GB of RAM and four virtual CPUs, while the Pro version upgrades these specs to 128GB of RAM and 32 CPUs.

If you're not ready to commit to a full version purchase, Parallels Desktop M1 offers a one-time upgrade to the latest single-license version of its Standard edition for $49.99. You can also upgrade from a one-time license to the Standard edition to a Pro subscription for $49.99 per year.

We strongly recommend going with the subscription option, as the Parallels app is deeply integrated with macOS and new iterations often require new versions of Parallels. The good news is that you can try any version free for 14 days before committing to a purchase.

The Pro and Business editions cost $99.99 per year, which includes any upgrades to new versions of the software during the payment period. Students can get the Standard edition for $39.99 per year, while home users can opt for either a one-time permanent-license fee of $99.99 or a subscription option for $79.99 per year.

Parallels Desktop M1 offers three editions: Standard, Pro, and Business. Whether you're looking to run Windows on your Ubuntu machine for personal or professional use, Parallels Desktop M1 has an edition that's right for you.
