What a Migration Specialist Should Know
about
Trial Works
Trial Works is a:
Desktop-Based Application
This means Trial Works typically runs as desktop software within the firm's office on employee PCs, however, some firms may use an IT provider that hosts Trial Works 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 Trial Works. In this scenario, some people may say that Trial Works runs 'in the cloud', however, it is really just a desktop application running on someone else's equipment.
Trial Works is a:
Personal Injury Practice Management System

The Migration Specialist will need the Administrator username and password into the Trial Works database server in order to extract your data.
This should be the Administrator account and not another account that has administrative access.
Admin Credentials into the Trial Works File Server

The computer used to migrate from Trial Works:
