The Outlook add-in is supported on any version of Office/Outlook from 2003 up to Outlook/Office 2013 (32 bit) and Windows XP up to Windows 7 (64 or 32 bit).

It should also work on Windows 8 but due to the infancy of the operating system we have come across some issues here.

Due to changes in components shipped with Office 2013, some manual intervention may be required following the standard setup process. Contact the OpenCRM support team for assistance in this instance.

Installation of the Outlook Add-in on Virtual machines and Parallels for Mac should work, but is not officially supported.

We do not support 64bit Office of any version.
