System Requirements
For the best experience with Furniture Wizard Software, it is recommended that you follow the system requirements below. This will ensure you get the most inventory processing power for your operation.
Furniture Wizard is installed directly on each computer that will run the program. One computer will be designated as the “Host” machine; this computer will maintain your data. Other computers on your local network will connect to this machine. The following is a list of the minimum requirements for all machines (the “Host” and “clients”) within the single-store environment:
• Processor: Intel Core i7 or better
• RAM: 16GB or higher
• Network: 100mb wired network. Wireless NOT recommended
• Backup Devices: NAS device or Cloud Backup Service
• Operating System: Windows 10 or higher (Professional edition for networking features)
• NOT compatible with Apple computers*
* See Cloud Solution requirements for use of Furniture Wizard Software on Apple computers
If you have multiple geographic locations, or if you need remote access to the software you need to have a Server or Cloud solution.
• Recommended for single-store solutions running more than 5 clients in Peer-to-Peer
• Furniture Wizard runs on a Microsoft Windows Server platform version 2016 or higher
• Requires Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services).
• Workstations require the Microsoft Remote Desktop Client.
• While not required, it is strongly recommended that a VPN tunnel is configured between the server location and other remote sites.
• Overall Server Hardware & Software licensing requirements need to be determined by a network technician based on the number of concurrent users and the needs of the individual furniture store. Hardware requirements may vary, and are based on Microsoft’s guidelines and best practices.
• The Remote Desktop Services Client Access License (RDSCALs) for each user or device used for connecting to the server should be determined by your Technician.
• Due to compatibility issues, the Dymo LabelWriter printer will need to be installed on a print server as printing with RDS redirection does not work.
• Strongly suggest using TS Print for all printing needs. Licensing fees may apply.
* Furniture Wizard cannot act as your IT consultant or provider. We work with Technology Mechanics (see the Partners Page for more information) if you need a Server Solution built or other IT Needs.
The Cloud-Hosted solution allows you to remotely access the software from multiple locations and removes the need for an on-site server.
• Operating System: Windows 10 or better; Apple MacOS (Version 10.14 or later)
• Internet: 25mbps download or better*
*Cloud solution will work best in a “low latency” scenario. Strongly suggest internet via cable provider and not DSL
