Xactimate System Requirements
System requirements
Xactimate runs on three platforms: desktop, online, and mobile.
Desktop
Verisk invests heavily in emulating and testing hundreds of combinations of hardware and software scenarios. We focus on the scenarios predominant in the market that will return the best results for our customers. Xactimate system requirements often correspond to the same trends established by Microsoft. We recommend a Microsoft "System Rating" of 4.0 for the best possible performance results.

Why only these Android devices?
At Verisk, we want to be sure that users of our mobile apps have the best possible experience, and we know this is accomplished when both the hardware environment and software perform optimally together.
With thousands of Android devices currently on the market, it is impossible to test our Android app on every device. Many of these devices perform well, however some are not suited for a complex, large-scale business application.
Verisk invests heavily in testing its mobile apps on many hardware platforms, monitoring performance, stability, and scalability, and then using the results to provide guidelines as a service to our users. We are confident that those using devices on the supported list will have the best possible experience with their app.
