Like any other application, Insightful requires a certain system & network setup to operate optimally. This includes application footprint, network, operating systems, and browsers.

Operating system (OS)

  • Supported: At least Windows 7 with .net framework package ver. 4.8 or higher installed. On higher Windows versions, Insightful will run without the need to have any additional packages installed ,

  • Supported: OS X 10.15 Catalina version and higher,

Hardware and Application footprint

There is no minimum hardware requirement to run Insightful on any device. As long as OS requirements are met, it will be able to start. Application footprint - resource usage of Insightful is the following:

  • 40 - 200 MB RAM, depending on what features are being used,

  • around 0-5% CPU, depending on the computer's processor type.

Network

Insightful is maintaining low bandwidth consumption with its core functions of attendance and productivity tracking. Screenshots feature activation will lead to a slight, but not significant increase.

  • ~660KB every 10 minutes without Screenshots,

  • ~1.5MB per screenshot additionally with the Screenshots feature.

Screenshot size is affected by the following requirements:

  • Screen resolution

  • Number of monitors

  • Network setup

Insightful web app can work on the list of browsers listed below. The platform could be run on other modern browsers as well but we can not guarantee that it will perform or look as intended. 

  • Chrome 99 and newer.

  • Safari 15.5 and newer.

  • Firefox 102 and newer.

  • Microsoft Edge 110 and newer.
