We are about to launch a new program for ISVs, Works with Windows Server 2008. This program establishes baseline application compatibility with the new Windows Server 2008 operating system.

We recommend that you use the Works with Tool as a stepping stone to receiving the Certified for Windows Server 2008 logo. Certification helps ensure that your customers have the best experience possible with your product running on Windows Server 2008.

To help you with this we have the following tools:

  • Works with Tool (Beta) for Windows Server 2008
    This highly-automated tool will help you quickly determine baseline compatibility with Windows Server 2008. Any pieces of the application (installation, primary functionality, drivers, etc.) that do not meet baseline compatibility will be flagged for development refinement. Note that the two documents listed below are embedded into this tool. We have provided the Word documents for those who desire a deeper understanding of the tool.

  • Works with Windows Server 2008 Software Specifications
    Technical specification outlining requirements that allow server applications to receive the Works with Windows Server 2008 designation.
