Compatibility and Interoperability

  • MicroStrategy Workstation for Windows

    MicroStrategy Developer and MicroStrategy Workstation for Windows can be installed on the same machine, or on different machines.

  • MicroStrategy Workstation for macOS

    MicroStrategy Developer is not available for macOS.

  • MicroStrategy Workstation on the Intelligence Server machine

    Workstation can be installed on the Intelligence Server machine, but this is highly not recommended, as there are known usability issues because of having both products on same machine.

    Do not install Workstation and Intelligence Server on the same machine.
