DekkoDrive: Getting Started

How to download, sign in, and configure the DekkoDrive desktop sync application.

DekkoDrive is a supercharged upload and download tool for the DekkoDEMS platform. It’s a lightweight executable that doesn’t require installation - just open the executable file and log in with your DekkoDEMS account.

Each time you launch DekkoDrive, it will show you the latest cases available to your account. From there, you can quickly upload new files or folders, or download existing content from your active cases.

  • View support multimedia file types such as images, MP3 audio and MP4 video
