Team@Work is a network-based system and therefore it needs some efforts to install and prepare it to run. We hope these efforts will be paied back with the increased efficiency and pleasure of using Team@Work system.

Team@Work consists of two installations: the server and the client applications. You should install both parts in order to run the system.

The download package contains following installation programs:
    - win_taw_server_1.6.exe: installer for Team@Work server on MS Windows platform
    - win_taw_clients_1.6.exe: installer for Team@Work client applications on MS Windows platform

Team@Work is a Java based system and therefore it needs a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to run. You must install JVM before installation of any Team@Work part (server or clients). Please note, that the minimum required version of JVM is SunJRE 1.4.0 or greater. If you have this JVM already installed on your computer(s), you don't need to re-install it. Otherwise you should install it. For your convenience the download package contains appropriate JVM installer for MS Windows - the file j2re-1_4_1_01-windows-i586-i.exe. Please refer to file "InstallationGuide.txt" for detailed information about the installation procedure and possible sources of additional downloads.

You must install only one Team@Work server. Please choose the correct installer for the operating system of your server (Linux or MS Windows). If you want to allow Team@Work users to access the system via Internet you will need a Web server running as well. Currently Team@Work is tested only with Tomcat 4.1. Please refer to file "WebInstallationGuide.txt" for a detailed description of the procedure. 

The users of Team@Work may choose different approaches in using the system. Some of them may prefer to access Team@Work via Internet. In this case they do not need any installations on their computers. Please note that in this case you should have a Web server running and Team@Work web application installed on it. 
Other users may choose to install Team@Work Applications package on their computers. Please choose the correct installer according to the operating system (Linux or MS Windows). Of course, you will need a JVM installed as well. 
It is NOT necessary for the server and the clients to run on one and the same operating system - you may have a Linux server and MS Windows clients for example. Also you may have different platforms for different clients.

All the installation programs are easy to manage and should not make any problems during the process. Please read carefully the "InstallGuide.txt" for more information. In case of problems, please contact us on support@efficient-soft.com.

If you have installed version of Team@Work Standard etition version 1.0 or 1.5, you can easily upgrade from Team@Work Standard edition versions 1.0 and 1.5. Please visit own site to download the upgrade package.

One week before the license expires the system will start to notify you about the expiration (see the Team@Work documentation).
