System Requirements
Performance may vary depending on several factors, including hardware configurations and project types. This list represents the minimum guidelines to run Vectorworks products.
Operating System
macOS 14 (Sonoma), macOS 13 (Ventura), macOS 12 (Monterey), macOS 11 (Big Sur), Windows 11, Windows 10 64-bit
Processor
Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5, or better, Apple M1 or higher
Screen Resolution
1440 x 900 or higher recommended
RAM
8GB or more
Graphics Card
macOS M-series: M1 8GB or higher, macOS Intel: Metal GPUFamily1 or later, 2GB VRAM or more, Windows: DirectX 11 compatible, 2GB VRAM or more. 16GB Unified Memory (M-series) / 4GB VRAM or more is recommended when using multiple displays, or a 4K or higher resolution display. Some integrated graphics cards such as Intel Iris Plus/Pro/Xe series are acceptable for very simple models/drawings, but a dedicated graphics card is preferable.
Network Requirements for Project Sharing
Project sharing requires high-speed network connections. As the network bandwidth increases, so does project sharing performance. Slower network speeds can still provide a satisfactory user experience if you minimize operations that transfer large amounts of data over the network (such as committing changes to the project file or refreshing a local working file).
