Here are the best ways to run android on computer.
1.BlueStacks App Player(Windows)
This is the best way if you are interested in getting apps and games running on computer then this is the best way.
Bluestacks App Player lets you run an virtual android on your computer i.e. it doesn't replace your entire OS.It is very fast and it also runs in full screen.It is specially useful for the gaming purpose .It is available for only windows os.It supports easy installations from APK packages or Google Play.
Cons:It does not use standard version of android.It use a customised build version.It has issues of crashing and conflicting with some application.If you are a developer then you cannot rely on this as there is no guarantee that app runs on bluestack will run on real time android device.
2..The Android Emulator(All OS)

The Android Emulator |
It is the most basic emulator for Android which is provided with official Android SDK by Google.It is used to create virtual android devices with any version of the android with different specifications like different resolution,RAM etc.
Its advantage is that this is unmodified version of android right from source.So apps runs in emulator will run same ion devices.So for testing purpose it is useful.
Cons:Emulator lacks the hardware access to make apps run effectively so you have to manually set the ports.and there is no playstore in this so you need some file management.You have to install Apps but their APK.
3.Andy the Android Emulator(Win\Mac)

Andy runs on Win and Mac.It provides sync between desktop and mobile devices and enables app download from any desktop browser.If you only want to use android for communication then this is the best solution.
4.VirtualBox(Win\Mac) or VMware(All OS):
It is another easy ways to get android running on any os.These two provides facility to install any os as virtual OS in your OS.As a virtual machine (which you can use to virtualize other operating systems as well), VirtualBox doesn't exactly offer an interface intended for searching, downloading, and running Android applications.
