Additional Recommendations

Wireless Networking

Due to the large amount of data transmitted in SuiteMed, SuiteMed recommends the use of Terminal Services or Citrix to ensure proper performance when running over a wireless network.

Networks/Server

SuiteMed recommends that a trained networking consultant inspect and upgrade your network, if necessary, to the proper specifications for use. It would be wise to have this individual call our technical support department so they may be briefed on how SuiteMed is utilized on a network.

Remote Office Connections

If a clinic has more than one physical location, a thin client solution such as Terminal Services, Citrix, or Remote Desktop is recommended. In a thin client solution, the majority of the workload is placed on the server computer so minimal traffic is required to travel across the network. The following connections are listed in the order that is recommended.

1. Remote Desktop
2. Terminal Services
3. Citrix
