BrightWork Reporter for SharePoint 2007 - System Requirements

BrightWork software has the same system requirements as SharePoint. You will need to have the following hardware and software installed in your organization to operate BrightWork software on SharePoint 2007:

Operating System

Windows Server 2003 SP1 or Windows Server 2003 x64 or Windows Small Business Server 2003; .NET Framework 3.0; Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 with common files, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) service, World Wide Web service.

SharePoint Requirements

Single-Box Installation

Server with a processor speed of at least 2.5 GHz; RAM capacity of 1 GB minimum, 2 GB recommended; disk space up to 2 GB for installation minimum, 5 GB or more minimum for data.

Farm Deployment

Web server with processor speed of at least 2.5 GHz & RAM capacity of 1 GB minimum, 2 GB recommended; SQL Server 2000 SP3 (or later) or SQL 2005 system with dual processors of 2.5 GHz and 2 GB RAM minimum; disk space up to 2 GB for installation minimum, 5GB or more minimum for data.

Internet Connection

Broadband connection, 128kbps or greater, for download and activation of products.

Web Browser:

Level 1 Web Browsers
Level 1 Web browsers take advantage of advanced features provided by ActiveX controls and provide the most complete user experience. Level 1 browsers offer full functionality on all SharePoint sites, including the Central Administration Web site.

Level 2 Web Browsers
Level 2 Web browsers provide basic functionality, so that users can both read and write in SharePoint sites and perform site administration. However, because ActiveX controls are supported only in Level 1 browsers, and due to the functionality differences within different browsers, a different user experience might be provided and there could be some variances from the user experience from the Level 1 browsers.

Database server:

The computer that hosts the database server role must have SQL Server 2000 with SP3a or later or Microsoft SQL Server 2005 SP1 or later. Some advanced features required SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services SP1 or later.
