## Reviews

### "Recommended to Beginners to Professionals" — 5.0/5

> **Iman** | *20 January 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That this is free and open source. It contains lots of customizable features for running various VMs from the ISO files of the OSes, and is pretty easy to set up. Since it is very popular, it also has a lot of tutorials available online for customizations or while facing any errors.
> 
> **Cons**: The Guest Additions doesn't work properly with all the OSes, and also sometimes changing the screen size/resolution of the VM running might create an issue like flickering.
> 
> Recommend to everyone who is new to Virtual Machines, I personally use it to run Ubuntu regularly to work with my Project Files.

### "It is my first choice in virtualization" — 4.0/5

> **Samer** | *11 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is my first choice for virtualisation on my laptop, and that is because of the ease of use, installation and deployment. And due to the fact that it provides many features for free. &#10;It is connectable to many devices, and many features can be added.&#10;and having it frequently updated with the latest, keeping the edge in performance in comparison to other alternative software.
> 
> **Cons**: It requires so many computational resources, even if the VM is allocated a small allocation, so even if I like working on it, I have to delete it from the laptop after finishing the necessary work.
> 
> It is my first choice and the best software in machine virtualisation. I have used it several times.

### "Cannot be taken as a professional tool" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *26 December 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's free to use and offers basic Virtual machine configurations
> 
> **Cons**: I'm not able to do a lot of things that many other virtual machine managers can.
> 
> Since I was an student this has been the same tool, around 5 years ago. I hasn't evolved and introduced up to date features

### "Great tool to host a local VM" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *20 January 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use virtualbox to host some old windows operating system like win 7/8/9 etc. It is easy to use, you only need to find the virtualbox file online and import it to the tool, you also don't need to worry about the networking, it is all preconfigured for you.
> 
> **Cons**: VirtualBox is not updating feature set as frequently as before anymore, and some advanced features like configuring local network etc. lacks of documentation, also not a very active community right now.
> 
> I didn't find another tool which can currently replace VirtualBox to host my VMs for testing and still a great tool free of charge.

### "VirtualBox Has Been in My Toolkit for Years and It Still Delivers" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *12 June 2025* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about VirtualBox is how easy it is to spin up virtual machines and test different operating systems without touching my main setup. It’s fast, lightweight, and gives me full control over the environment. As someone working in a computing company, I use it daily for testing software in isolated systems. It just works, and I can count on it to be stable and reliable, even with complex setups.
> 
> **Cons**: I sometimes feel like VirtualBox's interface feels a bit outdated compared to newer tools.  I encounter small compatibility issues with newer guest OS versions, but old is gold, and it's still a solid tool I rely on every day.
> 
> I think virtualbox remains the ultimate software for testing different operating systems as it gives me the flexibility to clone VMs, take snapshots, and simulate network setups with ease. The ability to run multiple environments on one machine saves me a ton of time. Its stability and ability to support just about every OS I need makes me stick with it.
