We encourage use of a real Server Hardware for an office, but leave this to the discretion of the IT professional who is advising you. Additionally, we always recommend hard wired connections when possible over WiFi. Note that for WiFi option, the router and connection must be very fast commercial grade level, but still not suggested. If the technical support team advises your WiFi is too slow, the network upgrade will be postponed and they will advise your office on having your IT professional hard wire with ethernet the connections to the router for all computers and x-ray computer. VPNs, Terminal Services and cloud based hosting solutions for servers are not supported by PostureCo technical support team. PostureRay installed in these environments will not be supported.
