My review is solely based on it's Linux integration. Oracle-Virtualbox is free, easy to find, download and install, has few requirements.
Once that is done : you simply need to locate and download the distro of your choice. With basic hardware and networking knowledge you can then set it up. Also the copy + paste between the VM and the host OS is a big plus. I do use other virtualization tools, but for home and training it's a must-have : I've been using it for several years now.

VirtualBox is very efficient when it comes to providing an environment that allows running more than one operating system. In this way, we can have a Mac operating system installed and additionally, we can simultaneously have another environment to have Windows and interact with the resources in a shared way.
We can even see shared file systems, resources such as USBs, microphones, hard drives, and in general almost all installed devices.
With VirtualBox we won't have problems running applications in the environment it provides us as long as we have configured the computer's resources in an equitable way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
VirtualBox operates efficiently in most cases, however, it is important that we consider having enough memory to share in the two environments, that is, if we have 16 Gbytes, we must distribute a part for the VirtualBox environment and the rest for the operating system. major. Additionally, it is important to properly manage updates, since in some cases, implementing a new version could have some compatibility issues. That being said, VirtualBox is very effective and has proven to be a current favorite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VirtualBox is a multi-OS virtualisation software, meaning it can run on multiple hosts (Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts) and supports a large number of guest operating systems including very old ones (like Windows NT4, XP and Vista). This can be very useful for testing. VirtualBox gets updated frequently which is important for this kind of software, meaning it is fully supported and maintained by Oracle. And bonus: it is Open Source! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
VirtualBox support for ARM-based Apple Silicon Mac devices is in its early development phase, so not fully supported yet. Hopefully a new version will come soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
