If you only have access to 2014 you'll need Alembic Crate. This archive has all builds from 2010 till now (don't have Soft 2014 on it's own).
https://d.pr/TTWU.zip Crate doesn't write as quickly as the native Alembic in 2015 but it's got a pile of useful tricks for manipulating the caches you create. When the addon is installed the easiest way to access it is via the File menu under Import/Export. There's a few nifty ICE nodes too.
