field access keeps projects moving

Pros

Having access on site makes a big difference for our project managers and subcontractors especially when they need to review all the files tied to a project while they're in the field.

Cons

The only small problem is that sharing files by email or text is not simple since PDFs have to go through a third party reader before they can be sent. Though it is nothing serious but it does add one extra step when sending files from the field.
