Re: Team work

We went through three different file transfer systems last year. We started with dropbox, but that didn't really serve CAD purposes. It doesn't lend itself to iterative part design, and really wasn't working as we had hoped. We then transitioned to Vault, which was really awesome. Vault is definitely the way to go. Nonetheless, somehow our main .iam was corrupted under the vault system and we had to start from scratch. I don't think it was necessarily because of vault, but for some reason, we never went back. After that it was just good old flash drives.
This year, however, I intend to implement the newly introduced "Autodesk Cloud". I've been playing around with it, and it seems to serve the purposes, in a minimalist and functional manner.
