Install Path

We recommend that every user installs the Performer Suite (PS) locally on their machine, with the connection to a central PS DB.
If you are missing windows-rights, an admin can roll out the PS centralized (see below 'Alternative Setup', second point).

Recommended path:

• C:\PerformerSuite

• C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\PerformerSuite

Alternative Setup

1. Install the Performer Suite centralized in one shared network folder, like OneDrive or similar (single installation). / Note: Depending on your LAN speed, starting the Performer Suite can be much slower than a local installation.

2. Centralized packaging and roll out (multiple installations). / Note: Same as the recommended way above, but rolled out by an admin.

3. Deploy the Docu Performer into Citrix is possible (single installation, streamed). / Note: Not optimized yet.

Which database should I use?

We recommend MS SQL Server over Oracle DB.
The reason for this is you don't need to use extra Oracle instant clients, the configuration and especially the troubleshooting is much easier (based on reports from our Support team).

Which bit version to use?

We recommend using 64-bit over 32-bit.

Why?
The 32-bit architecture will run out of memory in calculation-intensive processes, like the following actions:

 SAP Sync
 Bigger documentation export
 Longer sessions
