N-able recommends that you periodically review and evenly increase your system specifications, based upon your database administrator's (DBA) recommendations.

- Have dedicated physical hardware (not on a virtual machine).
- Have a LAN connection to N-able N-central; data transfers to Report Manager will exceed GBs of data daily.
