Buy VMware Software Licenses at SuperKeyStore

VMware, now part of Broadcom, built the products that made x86 virtualization common in offices and data centers. Its range runs from desktop hypervisors for single computers to platforms that run entire server farms, and it is used by developers, system administrators and IT teams in companies of every size.

Our VMware products include VMware Workstation Pro 16 for Windows for PCs, VMware Fusion 13 Pro for Mac for Apple computers and VMware vSphere 7 Standard for servers. Each order delivers a license key and a link to the official VMware download by email, usually within minutes.

Why buy a VMware license?

VMware software brings concrete advantages to desktops and data centers:

  1. Proven hypervisor: ESXi is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on server hardware with a small footprint.
  2. Shared virtual machine format: Machines built in Workstation Pro or Fusion can be moved to vSphere, which helps when a test system becomes a production server.
  3. Advanced desktop features: Workstation Pro offers snapshots, clones, virtual networks and encrypted virtual machines for development and training labs.
  4. Central server management: vSphere Standard with vCenter manages hosts and virtual machines and adds high availability and vMotion live migration.
  5. Operational insight: vRealize Log Insight collects and searches logs, and vRealize Network Insight maps traffic between virtual machines and networks.

What are the main features of VMware?

VMware tools share a common virtualization core. The main features are:

1. Snapshots and clones

Workstation Pro and Fusion Pro save the state of a virtual machine and restore it at any time. Linked clones create test copies that use little disk space.

2. Virtual networking

Virtual networks connect machines in isolated labs, NAT or bridged mode. This lets developers and trainers simulate real networks on one computer.

3. Bare-metal hypervisor

ESXi installs directly on server hardware without a host operating system. It gives virtual machines more of the server's resources.

4. vMotion and high availability

vSphere Standard moves running virtual machines between hosts and restarts them on another host after a failure. Businesses use this to reduce downtime.

5. Application virtualization

ThinApp packages Windows programs into portable files. Administrators deploy them without changing the target system.

Desktop and server products serve different goals. Workstation Pro and Fusion run virtual machines next to your normal programs, while ESXi and vSphere turn a server into a dedicated platform that hosts many machines for a whole organization. Many IT teams use both: they build and test a machine on a laptop and later move it to the data center.

Which VMware product is right for you?

Use Workstation Pro on a Windows PC, Fusion Pro on a Mac, and ESXi or vSphere Standard when you virtualize servers.

Version matters mainly for compatibility. Older Workstation Pro releases may not support the newest guest systems or host updates, while existing virtual machines built with version 15 or 16 open in version 17. On the server side, vSphere 7 and 8 have different hardware support lists, so check your server model before choosing.

What are the system requirements for VMware?

Desktop products need a modern 64-bit computer with hardware virtualization; server products need hardware on the VMware compatibility guide, so check each product's System Requirements tab.

RequirementMindestens
BetriebssystemWorkstation Pro: Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit); Fusion 13: current macOS; ESXi/vSphere: supported server hardware
Prozessor64-bit CPU with Intel VT-x or AMD-V, or Apple silicon for Fusion
Arbeitsspeicher (RAM)4 GB minimum for desktop products, 8 GB for ESXi 8; more for each virtual machine
SpeicherplatzAbout 1.5 GB for desktop products, plus space for virtual machines
OtherInternet connection for activation and updates

Each running virtual machine needs its own share of memory and disk space, so plan the host for the total of all machines you run at once.

How do you download and activate VMware?

  1. Order: Select the VMware product and complete checkout.
  2. Email: We send the license key and download link, usually within minutes; a security check can take up to 24 hours.
  3. Download: Download the installer or ISO from the official Broadcom VMware portal.
  4. Activate: Enter the key during installation, or under licensing in the ESXi host client or vCenter.

What happens to my VMware license if I reinstall or format my computer?

Desktop licenses are key-based: install Workstation Pro or Fusion again and enter the same key. For ESXi and vSphere, reinstalling the host means entering the license key again in the host client or vCenter.

Virtual machines themselves are just folders of files. You can copy them to the new computer and open them in the same VMware product once the license is active there.

Can I move a VMware license to a new PC or Mac?

Yes. Remove the key from the old installation and enter it on the new computer. Workstation Pro is for Windows and Linux PCs and Fusion for Mac, so they are separate products.

What if my VMware key does not work?

Email our support with the order number and a screenshot of the license message. You will receive a replacement key or a refund under the Erstattungsbedingungen.

Frequently asked questions about VMware

Is VMware Workstation Pro free now?

Broadcom made recent Workstation Pro and Fusion Pro releases free for personal use in 2024. A license key is still relevant for older versions and for setups that require a licensed copy.

Can VMware Fusion run on Apple silicon Macs?

Yes. Fusion 13 supports Macs with M-series chips and runs ARM versions of Windows 11 and Linux.

Should I choose vSphere 7 or vSphere 8?

Choose vSphere 8 for new hardware and current features. vSphere 7 fits existing environments that have not yet been upgraded.

What is VMware ThinApp used for?

ThinApp packages a Windows application into a single executable that runs without a normal installation. Administrators use it to run older or conflicting apps side by side.

Does a VMware license include Windows?

No. Each guest operating system in a virtual machine needs its own license.

Can I run macOS in VMware Workstation?

Apple licensing allows macOS virtual machines only on Apple hardware, so use Fusion on a Mac for that.

Does Workstation Pro run on Windows 11?

Yes. Workstation Pro 17 supports Windows 11 as a host and as a guest system.

Can I open VirtualBox machines in VMware?

Yes. VMware can import machines in the OVF or OVA format that VirtualBox exports.

How many virtual machines can I run at once?

The limit is your hardware, mainly memory and CPU cores, not the license.

Where do I download VMware products now?

Since the Broadcom acquisition, VMware downloads are offered through the Broadcom support portal, which requires a free account.
