Using DocIQ with Office for Sync Users

New FileCloud Sync users: DocIQ has been replaced with FileCloud for Office. Please see the FileCloud for Office with Sync documentation.

Current FileCloud Sync users (DocIQ users): FileCloud no longer supports DocIQ. Later this year, DocIQ will be fully deprecated. Although you can continue to use DocIQ with the current release, we recommend using FileCloud for Office, which can be downloaded from the Office add-ins store. Now, when you upgrade FileCloud Sync, you are given the choice of using FileCloud for Office or continuing to use DocIQ. If you choose to use FileCloud for Office, please see the FileCloud for Office with Sync documentation.
