Web Browser | Google Chrome

Screen Sharing Control

  • DryvIQ requests a resource that allows our team to use screen-sharing controls with an online meeting service, such as Microsoft Teams or GoToMeeting, so DryvIQ can perform the installation and configuration of DryvIQ Govern.

Remote Desktop Access (Optional)

  • The Professional Services team requires Remote Desktop Access to the DryvIQ servers to assist with setup, configuration, and monitoring of the system.

  • Access via direct RDP access or via VPN

  • Admin-level rights to the server(s) to install and configure

  • Provide DryvIQ access to the username and password/admin-level access rights to the DryvIQ servers for setup, configuration, and monitoring of the system.

 

Languages

  • DryvIQ Govern (including the login screen) uses English (UK).

  • DryvIQ is a North American language-based software solution that supports Unicode; however, it is neither localized nor internationalized. To support our international customer base, we recognize that support in non-English languages is required. As such, we have made significant investments in developing a solution that accepts and migrates a vast majority of data for most languages. While we continue to make additional investments to ensure our solution enables the migration of non-English-language files and folders, it cannot account for all idiosyncrasies/caveats.
