We work hard to make sure Synergy works on the latest operating systems, but we understand that many of our users still have legacy hardware that they need to use.

There are also some hardware requirements for Synergy:

• An Ethernet or Wi-Fi network connection where both computers can see each other.
• Each computer must have its own screen or screens (there is no video sharing feature).

Get in touch about Synergy Business if you require support for legacy operating systems.
