Question: What versions of Windows does ezGroups run on?
Answer: ezGroups has been tested on the 32-bit versions of Windows 7, Vista and XP. It should work on other versions, however you will have to download it and see for yourself. It only takes a couple minutes to try it out, and the program is very easy to un-install. ezGroups runs on all versions of Mac OS X. However, if you have an older Mac with a PowerPC processor, you will need to use this version of ezGroups.
