Overview
The FalconApps server is an application delivery server that allows you to access software applications that are owned by the college and housed on campus - from anywhere and on both Windows and Apple computers. We recommend that your computer (Windows or MacOS) be fully updated to the latest version of the operating system and fully patched. We also recommend that you use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge as your web browser.

Once you complete these instructions, you will be able to run SPSS as if it were installed on your computer. Please note the URL in the article, not the screenshots.
The server may ask you to accept a certificate (it may not) - you must accept it.
