Virtualbox definitely it's open source & doesn't have any catches.
Also easy to understand & to install on both OS.

In my work we use Vagrant over VirtualBox, but VMWare is also ok.
VirtualBox is free, so it would be great for learning.

For work its VMWARE, because of proessionality we are having about 600 Servers in our serverfarms.
For private it is Virtualbox, because its userfriendly and fast to set up.

I have two favourites: VirtualBox and vmware.Virtualbox is free and easy to use but vmware has more complex stuff like esxi server and things like that but vmware costs.

I prefer using VMWare, But If you want to pay I would recommend VMWare otherwise go VirtualBox (Freeware).
I do like VMWare because it has a lot more features with Guest Support, But yeah the choice is up to you.

If you are running Windows 7 or Vista, You may be able to use Virtual PC. But that isn't supported with Windows 8 and every Operating System after that.

VMWare is AMAZING, however you'll need to torrent a copy if you don't want to go spend tons of money on it.

Back in the days when I am so addicted in trying new or unique Linux distro, I used VMWare, it is easy to setup and relatively take not so much resource.

I personaly like hyper-v from windows but I also use vmware and I recomend virtual box as a free alternative and because it's cross platform.

Currently I'm starting to use Virtual Box, since it is free and it allows easily to deal with android virtual devices, but I'm a fan of VMWare

no doubt that the virtual box of oracle is free and works very well and light. it virtualized many things with it and it works perfect has options to export and import virtual machines.es the best then if it could be used
VMware Workstation 12.5 Pro is very good but it is paid.

Virtualbox it's free software for virtualisation, VMware it's a very good software but it's not free ! After you are kmv and openvz

VMware, cuz i still have a license from my previous company.
VirtualBox, cuy it's free.
Docker, is not really a VM but i started to see why people like this kind of container thing so much. So I'm currently trying to get into this

I used to use VMWare but moved over to VirtualBox when it was launched as it was free, I also find it is less resource intensive than VMWare was, you can clone machines and I have run everything from Windows XP, 7, 10 to MacOSX, I use it for Kali tutorials while I learn new skills, I have set it up in my classroom so students can try out different operating systems without breaking their computers.
