System requirements

At symplr, our goal is to provide the best possible user experience across the wide range of desktop and smart device browsers. To achieve this goal, we prioritize supporting browsers with the most advanced technology. Our solutions are designed to function with the browser versions we’ve identified in the chart below as A-Grade — we actively test on these browsers to optimize user experience.

symplr recognizes that some legacy browsers, which we’ve identified as X-Grade, don’t provide the technology needed to deliver new features with a modern user experience. In order to continue providing the best solutions and support, we’ve decided to discontinue support for these X-Grade browsers.

In addition, there are browser versions for which we provide limited support, identified below as C-Grade. While we don’t regularly test this set of browser versions, customers have found them to work well with our software. Problems reported with these versions may be addressed, but we cannot make specific commitments as to if or when a fix will be available. In some cases, we know of select features or functionality that don’t work with these browsers. We do our best to document those cases and make this information available upon request.

By prioritizing A-Grade browsers and discontinuing the support of X-Grade browsers, symplr can release features more frequently, provide better support, and resolve issues faster.

Please contact support@healthcaresource.com if you have questions on browser support. We’re constantly upgrading our solutions to make them more browser agnostic. This work is ongoing and incremental, and we’ll notify customers when browser support changes.
