Software Standards for Windows

Can't find what you're looking for?
    Try: All Supported Software or Mac Supported Software

The following chart, based upon the A&S  Desktop Standards Committee recommendation, lists Windows software which is fully supported by ITS. Note that the version number refers to the lowest version supported. 

Only legal copies of software will be installed and supported.  One license for each installation - or appropriate site licensing  -  is required.

See the ITS page for Ordering hardware/software for more information.

See the UIT page for ordering software that is licensed for all Tufts users, or for which discounted licenses or purchasing options may be available.
