This article outlines the hardware, operating system, and browser requirements for using the Opus 2 Platform, including minimum recommendations and supported environments.


The Opus 2 Platform is designed for use on desktop and laptop computers to ensure optimal performance and user experience. While the platform may function on other devices or environments, full compatibility and performance are only guaranteed on the supported systems outlined below.

Quality Assurance (QA) testing is focused on a defined set of operating systems and browsers. As a result, not all browser and operating system combinations are regression tested prior to general availability (GA).

Hardware Requirements

For efficient performance, Opus 2 should be used on a computer that meets the following recommended minimum specifications:

  • Memory: At least 8 GB RAM
  • Processor: Quad‑core CPU

Example:
A laptop with 16 GB RAM and a quad‑core processor will provide a smooth experience when reviewing large document sets or transcripts.

Browser Support and Testing

  • QA performs regression testing using Google Chrome on Windows and validates against the same Chrome version.
  • QA may also perform smoke testingon:
    • Microsoft Edge
    • Other supported operating systems listed above

Note:
QA does not perform full regression testing across every browser and operating system combination before GA.
