Simul is a document management platform which is tightly integrated with Microsoft Office. As a result, you need certain software in order for it to work correctly:
Simul will need to be deployed a dedicated server (or virtualized) on your organization’s network.
Simul is installed inside a virtual environment hosted by Windows Containers and configured using Docker. Our installer will setup these for your environment.
You must have a valid copy of Microsoft Office 2013 or later installed on your end users' machines.
Simul Documents uses Office Online Server to convert documents between various formats. You must be licenced to use Office Online Server in read-only mode. This is covered by most Volume License Servicing agreements with Microsoft, but you are responsible for validating your organization is licenced.
A modern web browser is required for the integration with Office to work. Simul will work with the following web browsers
Simul will work as best it can on many different screen sizes and devices.
In order to get the best experience and to be able to see what has changed within a Microsoft Word document, we recommend accessing the site using a device which supports 1366 × 768 pixels or above.
