The support of codeweavers is very good and fast as well, the two times I had to contact them.
The bottle system is amazing. It allows you to have multiple wine environments with different Windows versions seperated, so not just one Wine for all. Office 2003 runs on Windows XP, 2013 on a Vista env.
The bottles can be exported to RPM or DEB or shell installer for easy deployment as well. Plus the easy online database with appliations and profiles makes Crossover, for me at least, have a big advantage over bare Wine.
- Master0010 10y agoWhat is the big difference comparing with PlayOnLinux?
- baldfat 10y agoPlayOnLinux is a community application using WINE and with CrossOver you get full time employees working on the latest issues on Wine and first releasing their fixes into the application. They then turn the code over to WINE downstream. So when you help CrossOver you financially help WINE and a person who will help you with your problem within 24 hours. Also CrossOver gives you their bottle system and a great website to get your stuff working.
- bisby 10y agoAs far as I know, the "bottle" system is available in standard wine too (as wine prefixes), Codeweavers just provides a very fancy wrapper for the system and tools for managing the bottles. And that is definitely very handy if you want things to "just work" and dont want to fuss with prefixes yourself.
