What a Migration Specialist Should Know
about
Jump Drives
Jump Drives is a:
Desktop-Based Application
This means Jump Drives typically runs as desktop software within the firm's office on employee PCs, however, some firms may use an IT provider that hosts Jump Drives on a remote server in a remote datacenter. In this scenario, firm members may RDP, TeamViewer, RemoteApp, or Screen Connect to a remote PC where they access Jump Drives. In this scenario, some people may say that Jump Drives runs 'in the cloud', however, it is really just a desktop application running on someone else's equipment.
Universal Migrator extracts data from Jump Drives via:
File-Share Connections
Other Notes:
Contact Name Assist
In Jump Drives, some contacts only have a "Full Name" field and nothing absolutely identifies it as being a person or a company. Universal Migrator will attempt to determine whether a name looks like a person's name or a company name. The Migration Specialist and the Firm Administrator should review this and make any tweaks if necessary.
The following credentials are required:
Admin Credentials into the Jump Drives File Server
The Migration Specialist will need the Administrator username and password into the Jump Drives file server in order to extract your documents.
This should be the Administrator account and not another account that has administrative access.
The computer used to migrate from Jump Drives:
Should be located near the Documents
Because Jump Drives is a desktop-based application and documents represent a majority of the data that will need to be transferred, the computer used for the migration should be near the same device that stores the documents.
