"I've been looking at similar solutions on other platforms; specifically, how they're structured and also the costs. Quite frankly, I'm genuinely astonished: GRAPHISOFT BIMcloud is quite amazing! It's remarkably simpler, as well as much less expensive than other solutions. In my mind, this is a game changer for any large company with multiple sites! I don't know anything else in the market that even comes close to what you guys have done!"

Infinite Scalability with the Cloud

Building Information Modeling has been around for 30 years. BIM works perfectly at smaller scales where no extensive “worksharing” is needed. However, BIM may be a bottleneck for larger teams requiring simultaneous access to projects from different locations. In other words, BIM is great but does not scale well — at least it hasn’t up until now!!! The BIMcloud combines GRAPHISOFT's patented “Delta” BIM Server technology with the advantages of the CLOUD, providing a scalable solution for teams and projects of any size with the following specific benefits:

Central Resource Management in the Cloud

The BIMcloud Manager has a browser based “zero deployment” management interface that controls each aspect of the BIMcloud.

BIMcloud Manager’s project management interface allows users to organize their servers and projects into a folder-like structure. The grouping logic is up to the company's strategy (i.e. studios, offices, project types, owners or architects etc.).

BIMcloud integrates user management with the company's existing corporate user directory via the industry standard LDAP protocol and eliminates user management overhead for the existing IT personnel. BIMcloud login credentials are automatically synchronized with company login credentials for email or network domain access.

BIMcloud’s role management engine allows the fine-tuning of user permissions for all resources on the BIMcloud (e.g. servers, projects, libraries, functionality etc.) matching the needs of virtually any company structure and workflow. For example if subcontractors are also allowed to work on the BIMcloud, their access can be restricted to a particular project or part of a project along with the functionality needed to complete the assigned task.

The BIMcloud supports the HTTP, HTTPS and VPN protocols. With HTTPs, it is possible to achieve the same level of security as with VPN, while providing added convenience for remote access users.

The BIMcloud connects project members in real-time from any distance. Network latency is simply not an issue for the BIMcloud

The BIMcloud functions on standard hardware, no expensive server-grade hardware or software is required to run the BIMcloud

The BIMcloud operates on any level of data security, and is easily deployed in public and private cloud environments

The BIMcloud integrates into the corporate environment allowing IT personnel to centrally manage users and data access

BIMcloud scalability supports any type of workload. Upgrading BIMcloud Servers on the fly or adding new server resources as needed, it will not interrupt the office’s productive work in any way.
