CloudReady is built on Google’s open-source Chromium OS, so it offers a very similar experience to what users get on Chromebooks, with a few notable exceptions: you cannot access the Google Play Store or run Android apps, as you can within the official Chrome OS.

Is CloudReady same as Chrome OS?

CloudReady is developed by Neverware, whereas Google itself designed Chrome OS. Moreover, Chrome OS can only be found on official Chrome devices, known as Chromebooks, while CloudReady can be installed on any existing Windows or Mac hardware.

Can you install CloudReady on Chromebook?

You will be able to install any other Operative System on your Chromebook (Chromium, CloudReady, Linux, Windows).
