University IT recommends a variety of standard software packages, identified further down the page. Use of these operating systems and applications will ensure you the most interoperability, fewer problems, and better support. The University and Hospital comprise a diverse environment with many needs specific to the individual department.

Some software products have requirements that are not met by your environment or computer system. In addition, some products may conflict with others when run on the same workstation. Your Computer Administrator or IT department should be consulted before purchasing any hardware or software.

These recommendations are for those departments supported by University IT. Other local IT service providers may have different advice. Please contact your local IT support provider if you have any questions about this recommendation.

Support

The University provides a Support Staff who are familiar with the installation, varying levels of use and troubleshooting of these packages. In many cases they have attended training sessions themselves in order to provide a quality service. Beyond the software identified below, a "best effort" assistance effort will be made. Please understand that if we are not familiar and trained in a particular software application, the time spent on problem resolution may be limited, and issues may take longer to resolve, or not be able to be resolved at all. We can not fully support products that are deemed obsolete by the original manufacturer or are used beyond their original purpose and design.
