During installation you will be prompted to choose between the regular client and the administrator version. The administrator version includes additional tools like Outlook Add-in Installer, Report Writer, Command Bar Editor, Dashboard Viewer, Definition Editor, System Upgrade/Restore, Test LDAP, and Import Utility. In most cases, you will not need to install the administrator tools. If you are unsure which version to download, contact your Team Lead.
