Wireless Networking

Due to the large amount of data transmitted in MediNotes e, MediNotes recommends the use of Terminal Services or Citrix to ensure proper performance when running over a wireless network.

Supported Backup Types

In the event that you must submit your database to support for inspection, please note that MediNotes technical support can accept CD and DVD based backups. Due to the number and variety of tape backup devices, MediNotes cannot accept information on tape. If you have questions regarding the proper backup type to send, please contact our support team at support@medinotes.com.

Networks/Server

MediNotes Corporation recommends that a trained networking consultant inspect and upgrade your network, if necessary, to the proper specifications for use. It would be wise to have this individual call the MediNotes technical support deartment prior to upgrade or installation so they may be briefed on how MediNotes e ™ is utilized on a network.
