MacinCloud.com Reviews 

The team at MacinCloud are an absolute dream to deal with. No issue, no matter how small (and mostly my fault) is too much trouble for them. They respond quickly and without any back and forth, because they deal with issues effectively the first time around. I'd recommend anyone who has a Mac requirement but doesn't want to invest in a Mac to give MacinCloud a go. You won't regret it.

I subscribed to MacinCloud so that I could connect it to Visual Studio 2022 through "pair to mac" on Windows. I had some issues getting it going, so I contacted tech support by email. A call that should have taken, maybe, 10 minutes produced a slow email dialog, where they would ask a question or make a suggestion. I would respond, then wait overnight until I got a new response. I requested a phone call, but that fell on dead ears. Totally inadequate.

Beginning:

"I’m completely sold – just what I was looking for!"

At first, I was absolutely thrilled! MacinCloud's service seemed perfect. No more worrying about my own Mac, just getting access to a fully pre-configured system, all in the cloud! I could do all my work conveniently from anywhere. The whole process was seamless and easy, and all the services seemed to be exactly what I needed!

Middle:

I was able to get to work without any issues, and everything was running smoothly. I couldn’t understand why I hadn’t found this sooner! I could work anywhere, and MacinCloud was the perfect alternative to using a personal computer. It was truly amazing!

Ending:

And then... came the moment when I tried to change the wallpaper. Suddenly, I got an alert: "You don’t have sufficient rights." No problem, let’s try adjusting the sound. "You don’t have sufficient rights." No big deal, let’s try using a programming tool... "You don’t have sufficient rights." Wait a second... does this mean that all of this service I’ve been praising doesn’t even let me do basic things? "Insufficient rights" – why does this sound like I’ve been locked in some 90s PC "Guest" mode?

Conclusion:

Well, while MacinCloud offers an easy way to use a Mac in the cloud, I couldn’t help but notice that what I actually got was more like a "customized prison" rather than "full access." So, if you’re fine with enjoying cloud service without being able to tweak basic settings like wallpaper or sound, MacinCloud is definitely the right choice for you. But if you value freedom, this might not be the best fit!

No worth it, we spent in our company the cost of a managed server, then a dedicated server, and two weeks of a programmer trying to make it work without any success. Just wanted to develop an IOS app, nothing fancy, was imposible. It's a scam.

No worth your money. Everything is an option and sales website is misleading. When you do the math, buying a brand new mini is cheaper !

Very great service and easy to use. Definitely much cheaper than buying a Mac just to potentially fix a few issues with our software!

They are indeed very helpful. The support team is fantastic, and the service itself is of the highest quality.

Mac in cloud provide an excellent service that we've used for years to help us build apps for apple iOS devices. Their support has been exceptional - always prompt and helpful.

que servicio mas nefasto es imposible usarlo con xcode y el simulador ni hablar estuve 5 horas esperando que funcione y nada. además algunos días reinician el servidor sin aviso no 1 vez, fueron mas de 60 veces el mismo día. Solo roban dinero.

I've been using this service for ios development for 2 weeks and it is great the support team is amazing and very helpful

la machine virtuel est un peu lente mais le support est très compétent et réactif.
La solution est idéale pour profiter des derniers OS d'apple à faible cout, indispensable pour déployer des applications mobiles sur les stores.

MacInCloud will take your payment but not provide access to the VM at all if you cancel the subscription. I paid for it, cancelled my subscription, and they deactivated the VM immediately. Really? I've never seen a company do this. They don't allow you to use bitwarden or other password managers, dont allow copy and past passwords into the VM, so you either have to have an insecure password, or a painfully input password. All sales are final, they were not helpful in resolving the issue, had to dispute the transaction.

I appreciate the support. I have encountered a complex issue with my server. After upgrading the macOS version, I couldn't access my server. Victor and Tin received my issue within 10 minutes and resolved it successfully. I've created 7 tickets for every issue, and they kindly replied to my tickets. Here, the service is greater than Skype support

I didnt even pay for this and I wish I could refund this. A SNAIL COULD PASS A MILE BEFORE A FRAME WOULD PASS ONTO THE NEXT, takes about 6 hours to open XCODE AND I HAVENT EVEN OPENED IT YET. PLAYING VIDEOS IS LIKE AN OLD TV FROM THE YEAR 1927!!!! DO NOT USE THIS, IF YOU CANT RUN IT JUST STOP TRYING. ABANDON SHIP.

I wasn't aware of still being subscribed to a managed server after using it for a week. I then suddenly get charged after two months (rightfully, as I did subscribe), after which I cancelled my subscription. I then got charged again after cancelling, with no apparent reason why I got charged. Everything in my profile settings was turned off, and there was no way on the website to see where I could turn off my automatic payments. Macincloud.com charged me for absolutely no reason.

It worked great without much lag and zero disconnections.

Mac virtualization is a disaster, on top of that the support people take 3 days to answer you and the development environment compatibilities are very different between Windows and Mac, which is already about to be decompatibilized .

This was awesome experience using MacinCloud services. One thing I would advise them they should have some phone call available for any issue, otherwise it was very good using MacinCloud. Thank you

I opted for the Pay As You Go service and used it for only 2 hours. However, I'm extremely disappointed as the vendor refuses to refund the remaining hours, citing already allocated resources as the reason.

I selected a Mac Mini Silicon M1 with 8GB RAM running Ventura 13.x. Regrettably, I own a local PC for comparison, and in terms of performance, theirs was significantly slower, almost rendering it unusable.

Furthermore, it's essential to note that the connection to the computer is solely through a browser, which compromises stability and does not showcase the full potential of the device's performance. Additionally, the granted access to the computer lacks administrative privileges, restricting the installation of applications or making substantial modifications without having to contact technical support.

Overall, my experience with MacInCloud has been highly unsatisfactory. The refusal of a refund for unused hours, coupled with significantly inferior performance compared to local alternatives and limited administrative access, makes it a service I cannot recommend.
