**Can someone install this for me?**

We offer professional services.

**What are the hardware requirements?**

For best performance, we recommend a dedicated VPS with 2 CPUs/4GB RAM/NVMe disk.

Choose a geographically close data center location for the fastest UI speed.&#x20;

Customers are always surprised by how fast the UI is; a low-latency connection can be as responsive as a desktop application.&#x20;

Each individual's requirements will depend on the size of the contact list, the number of records sent per day, the number of resource-intensive tasks you have running, and how quickly you want them completed.&#x20;

**How much would it cost to scale hardware up to the highest sending volumes?**

This 32 CPU 128 RAM 1TB NVMe server from Hivelocity is $200/mo.&#x20;

Sending 1 million contacts in a campaign from this server shows 10% utilization in the Glances tool on Ubuntu Linux.&#x20;

Always make sure you **upgrade to NVMe from SSD** on **any** server running our software, it's a $19 upgrade on this server.&#x20;
