Operating system & hardware

Operating system - Windows based operating system required

Windows 10 / Windows 11 Windows Server 2016 / Windows Server 2019 / Windows Server 2022

For maintainable systems we strongly recommend at least Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 (or higher). Our products basically also run on older
Windows versions down to Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. However, due to limited future support for these operating systems by Microsoft we
will not be able to provide full support for our software running on these systems.

Hardware

Any device that supports Microsoft Windows can be used Use of virtualization environments possible

Requirements depend on project size

VMWare, Virtualbox, Hyper-V, ...
(small embedded device up to server systems)
