    Can someone please tell me if the two are compatible. I use Project every day and have been missing it since converting to a Mac (I have to use my old PC still). It's a frankly hideous expense so I don't want to buy it if it will not run on Parallels 9. I can see references to bootcamp everywhere, but not parallels. I'm purchasing Project Standard 2013 (have no need for the server edition).

    Any feedback welcome

    I don't have MS Project 2013 (yet - is it any good?), but I've been using MS Project 2010 in Parallels 9 with no issues. I also use Primavera P6 R8.2, SQL Server as the back end for that, and it also runs fine in Parallels 9. Those two applications are the only reason I really use Parallels 9.

    If I can get my hands on Project 2013 (my IT department is pretty stingy with that stuff), I'll install it and let you know what I find out.

    Hi CarolineE,

    You shouldn't have any issues as long as your guest OS fits this application system requirements.

    You can check it yourself with Parallels Desktop 14 day trial:

    Thanks,
