NetResults Tracker System Requirements

NetResults Tracker software only needs to be installed on a single web server machine. Users (including the administrator) do not need to install any software on their desktop computers. They just need a supported web browser.

If you do not have a web server which meets the system requirements (or do not wish to maintain one), you can subscribe to the NetResults Tracker (NRT) Online service (where we maintain web servers with NetResults Tracker software for you).

If you plan to use virtualization software, the virtual machine must meet the System Requirements below. In addition, please review our recommendations for using Tracker with virtualization software.

For both the Personal Live Trial and the NRT Online service, all you need is a web browser.
