Hey, I'm reaching out to get some insights into using Alteryx Designer within a Virtual Machine (VM) on a new Mac. Specifically, I'd appreciate hearing about your experiences with the performance and overall usability of the application in this environment.

If you've had any success running Alteryx Designer on a VM on a Mac, I'd be grateful if you could share:

* The VM software you've used (e.g., VMware, Parallels, VirtualBox).
* Any performance tips or recommendations you have.
* Any specific challenges you've encountered and how you overcame them.

We have a team member using a Mac and we're participating in a Datathon, so we're keen to explore all options for Alteryx Designer access. We're open to any suggestions and looking to learn best practices. Thanks in advance for your help!

I don't think Alteryx can natively run on Mac; it's mainly designed for the Windows ecosystem. But this post guides you on how to set up the Mac environment to run Alteryx, hope this helps
