Paragon Virtualization Manager 12 Compact allows users to migrate their PCs to a virtual environment (P2V) or vice versa (V2P) with zero downtime. The software is designed to solve all migration and virtual management challenges, enabling even inexperienced users.
Since most hypervisors do not support 2TB+ virtual drives, Virtualization Manager 12 also allows migration from 2TB+ physical drives to a smaller virtual drive.
So users can continue using their PC’s applications in a virtual environment. Programs, files and user settings are transferred automatically with zero user downtime. Even if you moved from PC to Mac – you can continue using your Windows PC on your new Mac.
Additionally, the updated Connect VD technology with non-destructive and snapshot mode enables the simple data management and data transfer between different types of virtual machines and allows migration from one virtual environment to another (V2V).
Users can connect a virtual disk as if it were an ordinary physical disk and open up all physical-disk functionality in a virtual environment, or use a read-only mode or a special read/write mode that creates a snapshot and applies all changes after the snapshot was made to test all configurations without destroying the virtual source drive.
Virtualization Manager 12 compact is compatible with most modern virtualization software providers, such as
Microsoft, VMware and Oracle, and supports major virtual machines, including Oracle Virtual Box 4, Microsoft Virtual PC, VMware Workstation and VMware Fusion.
Supported Operating Systems : Windows 7 (32/64-bit), Windows Vista (32/64-bit), Windows XP Professional (32/64-bit), Windows XP Home.
