Where design firms are most exposed
Architecture and engineering firms run on large, valuable project data.
“Our files are too large to email, so they end up in personal accounts.”
“Nobody is sure which version of the drawing is the current one.”
“Our people need project files on site, and security comes last.”
Design firms run on project data. It has to be organized, protected and available wherever the work happens.

Secure sharing with clients and consultants
