For most Architects, there are two licenses of interest that will allow them to move to an office in the cloud and to let their workforce operate from home.
BIM 360 Docs
If you don’t use central files in a LAN environment as a team then this is the solution for you. BIM 360 Docs becomes a repository for your files. The Principal Agent / Owner buys the licenses for users in the supply chain who then get given access to the folder structure based on permissions. Not only manage your files, but create design issues and mark-ups on drawings that are visible to everyone with access. One license per user but can be used on any number of projects created on the Principal Agent / Owner’s hub.
BIM 360 Design
If you use central files on a LAN and want the same ability on the cloud, then there is only one license in the world that will accommodate you. This license is a “bring your own license”, and it also includes BIM 360 Docs functionality. The greatest advantage of this model can be found where discipline teams need to collaborate on a project.
There is no limit to the storage size on BIM 360 Docs (and Design) as can be seen here:
