# Getting Access ## Supported Devices Most Internet and web enabled devices are supported including: * Desktop computers * Laptops (notebooks) and netbooks * Tablets * Smartphones {% hint style="info" %} Note that for tablets and smartphones, [use of the Mobile app](https://docs.cw.crisisworks.com/concepts-and-fundamentals/mobile-app) is preferred (with the exception of Windows devices) due mainly to integrated mobile functionality such as use of the device's improved support for GPS, multimedia, barcode/NFC scanning and touch screen control. However the web app has more power user and System Administration functionality including searching and querying. Some applications, such as inspections, are designed primarily for use only with the app. {% endhint %} For more information, visit the following page: {% content-ref url="../../security-and-support/maintenance-and-support/browser-and-device-support" %} [browser-and-device-support](https://docs.cw.crisisworks.com/security-and-support/maintenance-and-support/browser-and-device-support) {% endcontent-ref %} ## Signing In The system supports both **manual sign in** (using username and password) and **Single Sign-On** via the web or mobile app. ### Site URL Your Site URL enables you to access your organisation's system and all the Sites you are authorised to use. {% hint style="warning" %} Consult your system administrator for your access address.
