To ensure best user experience while collaborating on a cloud-hosted 4D project, the following recommended system requirements need to be met:

Performance: SYNCHRO 4D Pro and the SYNCHRO Control is a client-server architecture with SYNCHRO Control as the central point. Changes (transactions) to the cloud-hosted project in SYNCHRO Control come from a connected client which is uploaded to the database and then redistributed to other connected clients on a first come first serve basis, for this reason performance of the client network is important.

Network: Network is a big factor for transmission of large data. 

• Network speed: Greater than 10 Mbps upload & download for large transactions on client side.
• Local Network: Local network will be fastest with ideally 1 Gbps cabling and Network Interface Cards on client side. Wi-Fi will slow down connection especially with multiple clients on the same Wi-Fi.
• WAN & Internet: Over Wide Area Networks and the Internet it is essential to have fast Internet download and upload speed on client side, a large distance between a client and the data center region the SYNCHRO Control project is deployed to will cause latency which will slow the connection when downloading the project and sending/receiving updates.

Data Center Location: While setting up the project in SYNCHRO Control in the cloud, SYNCHRO Control Project Region (Data Center Location), that the nearest to the majorty of client users should be chosen to minimize latency.
