CrossOver: Windows for Mac without a Windows License

CrossOver

Is there a Windows game, utility or productivity app you want to run on your Mac? The cost of buying a Windows license and emulator can be prohibitively expensive! CrossOver is a well-known app that enables certain Windows apps to run on Mac without the need for an emulator or a Windows license. It’s on sale today: $19.99 for a “One” license, $39.99 for the “Pro” license.

Do you like buying Windows® licenses? You do? Great. You do you. For the rest of humanity, CrossOver is the easiest way to run many Microsoft applications on your Mac without a clunky Windows emulator. (Seriously, have you tried emulators? Do you like how they run on your Mac?) CrossOver works differently. It’s not an emulator. It does the work of translating Windows commands into Mac commands so that you can run Windows software as if it were designed native to Mac. 

CrossOver works with all kinds of software – productivity software, utility programs, and games — all with one application. Faster. Better experience. No license. Simple as that.
