Sassafras Install (on Mac)
ITS is implementing a new software program which will help monitor problems and provide us a more proactive and better reactive support response. This tool will be remotely installed from ITS and this article is to help answer questions about that process and provide step-by-step instructions for ensuring it will be installed/configured correctly.
Installation

Click “Allow” and the installation process should be complete! Thankfully once you reboot the computer, the program will load in the background, and you’ll probably rarely ever need to think about it again.
FAQ
Should you accidentally click cancel on the installation, simply reboot the computer and it should install and configure in the process. Contact ITS for verification that it didn’t have any problems in the background.
