Dezrez is so comprehensive, we are still only scraping the surface of what it can do for us and how it can help streamline our in-house day-to-day functions.

Technical specifications

The minimum specification for dezrez to function is very basic. An internet connection and rudimentary hardware is often all that's needed. Normally the most basic computers commercially available can support dezrez, though a more specific recommendation can be found in the PDF below.




Your internet connection

Number of concurrent users Minimum speed Recommended speed
1 user 1 Mbps 2 Mbps
2-5 users 2 Mbps 4 Mbps
5-10 users 4 Mbps 8 Mbps
10+ users 8 Mbps 10+ Mbps

N.B. All broadband connections should be of business grade coupled with a commercial class broadband router/ethernet switch (not a consumer home/SOHO router).

Your internal network

We advise you set up a 100 Mbps+ internal network to your broadband router to all your PCs. If you are using the enterprise version of dezrez then this is essential. If you wish to set up a wireless network then we insist you use a commercial wireless router / access point and not one designed for home use.

PC specification

The requirements for a PC to run dezrez are relatively low, so much so that a standard office grade machine bought from any major retailer will exceed most if not all of our minimum requirements.

Very important! Dezrez Requires: A minimum screen resolution height of 768 pixels and recommends installation of all available Microsoft Windows updates, including Service Packs and the latest Internet Explorer version.

The dezrez system can integrate with Microsoft Office to produce Standard Letters and Word Merges. Dezrez only supports Word 2003 and above. N.B. Dezrez does not support Microsoft Works.



Software Recommendation
Operating system Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 all with the latest software updates and service packs
Web browser Internet Explorer 8
Word processor Microsoft Word 2003 or above

Windows XP Minimum Our recommendation
RAM 1 GB 2 GB or above
Processor 1 GHz 2 GHz or above

Windows Vista/Windows 7 Minimum Our recommendation
RAM 2 GB 4 GB or above
Processor 2 GHz Intel Pentium Dual Core 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) Processor or above

Dezrez on non-windows platforms

Although dezrez does not directly support the Apple Mac OS Operating System we currently support a number of users running dezrez through the use of Apple's Boot Camp Utility and Third-Party emulation software, such as VMware Fusion and Parallels Desktop.

Due to the hardware requirements for these technologies if you have existing Apple hardware we suggest a minimum specification of:



Requirement Minimum Our recommendation
RAM 1.5 GB 2 GB
Processor Any Intel based Mac Intel Core 2 Duo based

Operating system Third-party emulation Apple boot camp
Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger Yes No
Mac OS X 10.5. & 10.6 Yes Yes

Dezrez enterprise specifics

To run the enterprise version of dezrez you will need to have a dedicated computer setup in the office that will pass dezrez data around to the other computers, this will be your server.



Software Recommendation
SQL server software Microsoft SQL 2000, 2005, 2005 Express or 2008

The size of your business will dictate how powerful your server needs to be and the following is our minimum recommendations*.



Requirement 2 offices 3 - 4 offices 5 - 10 offices 11+ offices
Operating system Windows XP Professional Windows 7 Professional Windows Server Edition 2003 / 2008 Windows Server Edition 2003 / 2008 x64-Bit Edition
SQL Version SQL Server 2005 Express** SQL Server 2008 Express R2*** SQL Server (Standard Edition) 2000 / 2005 / 2008 SQL Server (Standard Edition) 2000 / 2005 / 2008
CPU Pentium dual core Intel i3 2.9Ghz Intel Xenon Xeon Class Dual / Quad Core
RAM 2GB + 4GB + 6GB + 8GB +
Server dedicated to the dezrez database Yes Yes Yes Yes

* This specification is for the sole use of dezrez.
** 2 Offices SQL Server 2005 Express will work up until the database size reaches 1GB
*** 3-4 Offices SQL Server 2008 Express R2 will work up until the database size reaches 1GB



These specifications should under normal circumstances be sufficient for the initial 2 year license period. Agencies using the SQL express edition that extend their initial license period should consider upgrading to SQL server standard edition as the database will grow past the 1GB memory pool limit.
