[Do Parallels Desktop users have to purchase new Windows license keys?](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#accordion-faq_collapse15) Users will be able to bring their own Windows 11 license keys if they have a key that can be used to activate Windows. [What’s the difference between Parallels Desktop Pro and Standard?](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#accordion-faq_collapse18) Parallels Desktop Pro includes advanced features for developers and power users, such as support for [running multiple VMs simultaneously](https://www.parallels.com/apps/vagrant/), enhanced networking options, automation tools, and greater CPU/RAM allocation, that aren’t available in the Standard edition. In contrast, Parallels Desktop Standard is designed for everyday users who want an easy way to run Windows and other operating systems on a Mac without the performance tuning, development workflows, or enterprise-level management features found in Pro. [Does Parallels Desktop Pro support Docker, Kubernetes, and DevOps workflows?](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#accordion-faq_collapse19) Yes. Parallels Desktop Pro supports Docker, Kubernetes, and DevOps workflows by giving you the performance, automation, and virtualization flexibility needed for [local development and testing](https://www.parallels.com/apps/github/). With Pro, you can run and manage containerized environments, integrate with development tools, and [build, test, or debug applications](https://github.com/Parallels) across multiple operating systems directly on your Mac. This makes it a strong choice for developers and engineers working with modern DevOps toolchains. [Can I upgrade from Parallels Desktop Standard to Pro?](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#accordion-faq_collapse21) Yes, you can upgrade from Parallels Desktop Standard to Parallels Desktop Pro by purchasing a Pro license and entering the new activation key in the app. Once upgraded, you’ll immediately unlock the additional performance, networking, and development features that Pro offers without needing to reinstall anything. [Is Parallels Desktop Pro a subscription? Or a one-time purchase?](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#accordion-faq_collapse22) Parallels Desktop Pro is primarily offered as a subscription, which includes ongoing updates and access to Pro-only features for the duration of your plan. A one-time perpetual license is generally not available for the Pro edition, so if you want to keep using Pro and receive updates year after year, you’ll need to maintain an active subscription. ## Choose the right Parallels Desktop plan for you All purchases include a 30-day money-back guarantee for complete peace of mind. #### Standard Edition **Limited version** for those that need to run Windows applications on base model Mac computers. - [Subscription](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#subscription) - [1-Time Purchase](https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/#one-time) Supports future operating systems. ~~\$99.99~~ \$64.99 /yr Current version only.
