Hi,

I am an architect and I use files quite big for my job. Which is the limit to upload files to the sistem. I am also afraid to exhaust very soon the space of 6 GB. I’m not a big company and for the moment I cannot pay more. Are there some special ofers for my kind of work?

Thank you very much.

We work with autocad, photoshop, rhino, sketchup, revit, Ilustrator, etc, etc. I can imagin to need 40GB or more after a few months. It’s Solve360 an aplication for architects? I have a little studio of architecture with beetween 3 and 7 people, but what I see is that we use maybe too heavy files for the space that you offer.
I amb looking for some CRM and project management in internet and I found, for example, Liquidplaner that offer 50 Gb. Do you know some studio of architects thar works with solve360? I like very much the Idea of Solve360 but I would like to know how architects work with it…

Thanks

hey XTM -
  I’m not part of the Solve team - but in my experience using it with a few files of a larger size, I’ve found it makes mores sense to use a dedicated service for hosting files of that size - this way in my project blog i just include an external link to the file - so my project blog can hold all the tasks, events, thumbnails etc., AND i have access to the big files when i need it.

Solve is the point of reference for me. I suggest looking into Amazon’s offerings for hosting large files.

cheers

Good point Adrian, thanks.

We have many clients who have special storage requirements for managing their large media files etc.  If you need additional storage just contact our team directly and they’ll prepare a special quote for you.  It’s not that expensive and there is no limit to the amount that can be allocated.
