Hardware requirements 

You can use these formulas to get minimal requirements:

Renting remote server

If your PC is not powerful enough to handle all LinkedIn accounts you want to manage, you can rent a server in order to run Linked Helper there. You can get certain advantages such as:

1. No interruptions. Linked Helper's work will not be affected by the PC failures, electricity blackouts, issues with your ISP, etc.
2. 24/7 availability from any part of the world. All you need is a laptop with an internet connection.
3. You can give access to the remote server to your colleague/boss in case he/she needs to check your performance rate or change the workflow and add new prospects to the Queue while you are on vacation leave.
4. You can rent a much more powerful machine than the one you currently work on and run more  LinkedIn accounts than your PC can handle.

You can find complete instructions on setting up a remote server, either VPS or dedicated self-managed server in this article - How to install Linked Helper on a VPS / dedicated server

In case you`re planning to rent a server for managing multiple LinkedIn accounts, please, consider buying a dedicated server, not VPS (Virtual Private Server). It is possible that you will get only ~20% of the real capacity from your hardware if you choose VPS.

I'll give you an example: our software was hosted on a VPS and we had occasional drop downs as if it was overloaded. Therefore, on VPS the results were 4 times worse than on the dedicated server, yet the latter was 2 times less powerful than the former. At the same time, for few (1 - 3) LinkedIn accounts VPS may suit as well.

As an example of the above-mentioned services:

Dedicated hosting:

Ionos - Dedicated servers

The configuration in the screenshot below is able to handle 11 LinkedIn accounts running at the same time:

The  dedicated server from InterServer can manage up up to 23 accounts at the same time. Here is the link to InterServer website.

VPS: Ionos VPS

For managing one LinkedIn account:

For managing three LinkedIn accounts:
