DESII Connect for DESII 3.0
DESII is a web application accessed from a web browser via a RemoteApp (CFO Remote App and Desktop Connection). Only authorized users may access RemoteApp. PC users can click the RemoteApp Login link at right to begin. Mac users need to follow a somewhat different process to access the RemoteApp.
If you're new to DESII and aren't sure how to get into the system, or if it has been a while since you worked with DESII and you need a reminder, watch the brief videos below. You will learn how to get to DESII Connect and then see the following steps to log in from either a PC or Mac device. We also have complete written instructions (with screenshots) available at these links:
