WinOnX 2 Pro is the professional version of WinOnX 2, a program that allows Windows software to run on Mac OS X computers without so much as rebooting. The professional version can save data in Windows applications, making them usable on a more permanent basis than the standard, free version.

A simple solution with simple use cases

WinOnX 2 Pro works the way it promises to, letting you boot up some Windows apps in a Mac OS X environment without a hitch. Emphasis on "some": more modern, demanding software and 3D games are likely to fall flat, and will run much better on a dedicated Windows installation than they will through WinOnX 2 Pro. Non-graphical, older apps work much better, even flawlessly in some cases.

Choose based on your previous choices

Overall, WinOnX 2 Pro isn't the kind of product that will sell Windows gamers on using a Mac OS X computer. What it will do is let you run basic utilities, and even legacy software that later versions of Windows might struggle with by comparison. If you don't need it for anything more than an old favourite or for an archaic piece of work software, then WinOnX 2 Pro will perform without any flaws.
