Thank you for your interest in becoming a Parallels Beta Tester!

As a Parallels Beta Tester, you'll play a critical role in helping Parallels develop the next generation of its virtualization solutions. Testers receive early access to new Parallels products and serve as a key source of suggestions, comments, and criticism that help us make our products the best they can be. Also, to say "thank you" for your valuable time, effort, and feedback, we provide our most effective, contributory beta testers with a free, fully functional copy of the product when it’s officially released!

What will I need to do as a Parallels Beta Tester?

• Install and configure the Beta product within one week after you download it.

• Spend at least 3 hours each week testing the product during the product beta testing cycle. Beta testing cycles typically last 3–8 weeks.

• Report your experiences by email or the Beta Forum. Include any problems or bugs you experienced with the product, as well as suggestions for the product’s improvement and product "wish lists."

• Not discuss the beta product with any third party (including posting information to blogs, forums, MySpace, YouTube, etc.) unless specifically authorized by Parallels. Breeching the confidentiality of the beta program will result in immediate termination of your privileges and may result in civil or criminal action.
