Browser recommendations🔗
Currently, the only officially supported web browser is Google Chrome (the three most recent major versions). Although not officially supported, other Chromium-based browsers like Opera may work as well.
Tip
Modelon Impact uses modern web technology. It is recommended to use the latest version of Google Chrome to avail latest security and performance updates.
Internet speed🔗
Modelon Impact is a web-based application that requires a reliable network connection for the on-premise and cloud installation flavors. For a good user experience, Modelon recommends upload & download bandwidths of 10 Mbps or higher. The minimum bandwidth requirement is 5 Mbps.
Note
The desktop version (unless the local server is accessed from the network) is not restricted by internet connectivity.
Tip
There are several websites available for testing the internet connection speed. For example, Google provides a link to a speed testing service here.
