In today's collaborative work environments, businesses face significant challenges in maintaining data integrity and preventing conflicts, especially when handling complex files like AutoCAD and Revit. The absence of a robust global file locking mechanism leads to multiple users inadvertently working on the same file, resulting in overwrites, loss of work, and decreased efficiency. This situation underscores the need for a solution that alerts users when a file is opened by another and allows only one editor at a time to ensure data integrity.
Lack of alerts for simultaneous file access leads to overwrites and loss of critical work, hampering project timelines.
Without global file locking, businesses risk data corruption and version control issues, threatening project integrity.
The absence of file locking mechanisms results in decreased collaboration efficiency, as team members may unknowingly work on outdated versions.
Inadequate file locking exposes sensitive documents to potential security breaches, compromising business confidentiality.
Familiar with these challenges? Learn how Global File Locking significantly enhances secure and efficient collaboration.
Global File Locking significantly improves collaborative work environments by maintaining data integrity, enhancing security, and increasing efficiency. It prevents the issues of data loss and version conflicts by disallowing concurrent file modifications, proving essential for teams working with sensitive files, such as those created in AutoCAD and Revit.
Ensures that when a file is being edited by one user, others can only access a read-only version, significantly reducing the risk of overwrites and data corruption.
Provides an additional layer of security by locking files during editing, protecting sensitive documents from unauthorized changes and potential breaches.
Streamlines collaboration by clearly indicating when files are in use, thus avoiding duplication of effort and ensuring team members work on the latest version.
Integrates effortlessly with Triofox and CentreStack, offering a unified solution that supports remote work and simplifies file server access across locations.

Have you spent many hours troubleshooting VPN connections? Have both your staff and IT support team lost productivity due to downed VPN connections? VPNs are complicated; there is a better way!
Global File Locking enhances collaborative efforts and maintains data integrity by prohibiting concurrent edits. Upon accessing a file for modification, it becomes locked, rendering it read-only for others until the editing process is complete. This functionality is vital for teams utilizing complex files, such as those in AutoCAD and Revit formats, by improving security and workflow efficiency across various locations.
When a user opens a file for editing, Global File Locking automatically locks the file, preventing others from making simultaneous edits.
Other users attempting to access the same file during the lock will have read-only access, ensuring data integrity by preventing overwrites.
Supports collaborative efforts on documents, including AutoCAD and Revit files, by synchronizing changes without conflict, once the file is unlocked.
Leverages AWS for data storage, offering additional capabilities like versioning, on-demand sync, and offline access, enhancing collaboration and security.
Users are notified when a file they wish to edit is locked, enhancing communication and planning within teams.
Administrators can easily configure Global File Locking settings, ensuring the feature aligns with team workflows and project requirements.

The firm's journey from facing data sharing hurdles to achieving remarkable productivity gains underscores the value of customized, industry-specific cloud solutions in enhancing operational workflows and setting new standards in the civil engineering sector.
Global File Locking enhances collaborative work by preventing simultaneous edits on a document, ensuring that all changes are synchronized and the document's integrity is maintained. This is crucial for document security and version control, especially in environments where multiple users access and modify the same files.
Yes, Global File Locking prevents data loss by ensuring that only one user can edit a file at a time, preventing accidental overwrites. It works seamlessly with AutoCAD and Revit files by preventing overwrites and editing conflicts, maintaining data integrity across these applications.
File locking in Triofox ensures that when a file is accessed or edited by one user, it is locked to prevent multiple versions from being created by simultaneous edits. If the main file server goes down, Triofox can use the 'link to local' feature to ensure data stays in sync on secondary servers, minimizing downtime.
Yes, Global File Locking is compatible with mobile devices, allowing clients to access files from anywhere, including offline. Files opened offline are saved in a local cache and synchronized once the connection is restored, facilitating seamless remote work.
The authentication for Global File Locking works by reaching out to Active Directory or Azure for secure access control. External users or contractors can be given time-limited or permission-based access to specific files or folders, with options for password protection and view-only or download restrictions.
Global File Locking maintains version control and data integrity by synchronizing changes back to the source, ensuring all users have the current version. The platform supports versioning and setting up retention policies for files, providing protection against accidental deletions and ransomware.
If a user exceeds their offline file storage limit, older files may be the first to be removed, but users can manage and remove offline files as needed. If the main file server goes down, Triofox can use secondary servers to keep data in sync, ensuring minimal downtime.
The pricing for the Global File Locking solution is $18 per user, which includes storage. For example, for 35 users, you would get 3.5 terabytes of S3 storage for free, as well as the user licenses, amounting to approximately $630 per month.
