What a Migration Specialist Should Know

about 

Laser Fiche

Laser Fiche is a:

Desktop-Based Application


This means Laser Fiche typically runs as desktop software within the firm's office on employee PCs, however, some firms may use an IT provider that hosts Laser Fiche 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 Laser Fiche. In this scenario, some people may say that Laser Fiche runs 'in the cloud', however, it is really just a desktop application running on someone else's equipment.

Universal Migrator extracts data from Laser Fiche via:
