All our drawings are at the architect’s office.
Frequently the master drawings are maintained at the architects or engineers office for expediency. So when you need to check out drawings or plots, you search for paper plots, CD's or DVD's with the current version. But how do you know it is the most current? Most likely, you end up using a version of questionable currency or contact your architect to get a new file or plot.
With the Web Drawing Manager drawings or plots can be stored for access by either your design firm or your in house staff. The most recent design is available for 'Check Out' by either. You can easily undertake projects in house that don't require design professional services, and when additional expertise or resources are needed, the latest changes made by either group are available.
My emails with attached drawings aren't getting to the recipient.
You don't know exactly what is happening to the emails with drawings attached, but you keep trying to get them through. You split them up. You zip them. You check with your email service provider. You ask the recipient to check with their email service provider. Is there a size limit somewhere along the way? Is the file type getting filtered by a spam filter? Is a firewall preventing your drawings for getting to the people you wanted to have them? Has someone intercepted the drawings along the way?
And then, if the drawings do finally get where you sent them, the drawings clog up the email client of the recipient while they download, perhaps slowing access to an email that is needed right away.
This situation is aggravating and time consuming. Web Drawing Manager alleviates these problems. Operating in a secure https environment, firewalls allow files to pass. In addition, files are encrypted during upload and download. Theoretically files up to 4 GB can be handled by Web Drawing Manager. We've never tested anything that big, but we have successfully tested files up to 250 MB. Once uploaded, the drawings can be retrieved by any authorized user, when and, if they want them.
