System Requirements
There are several different categories of users that work with Buzzsaw. This
section defines those categories and provides recommendations for system
specifications based on what activities a member needs to accomplish during
the member’s daily activities. These specifications are recommended starting
points for all levels of users: adjust them according to your needs.
These recommendations are assuming a fresh reboot with no other products
running. Running other products uses system RAM. You may need to increase
your RAM in order to use multiple products at once. The bandwidth of the
internet connection directly affects file transfer and log in speeds. Initial login
to the Buzzsaw software client takes the longest due to the caching of data that
takes place. Subsequent logins take less time as Buzzsaw only updates the
differences since the last login. Initial login times are affected by the size of the
site being accessed. Your level of permission on the site you are accessing does
not change the amount of data that is gathered during initial login.
Buzzsaw is available in the following languages: English, French, German, Italian,
Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese.
File Transfer Only
