Windows File Sync Client

I think it would be very useful if we could install a sync client for the File Library on Windows. It would be great if we could interact with the files through Windows Explorer similar to how Dropbox or OneDrive works today.

    A solutions to migrate large file structures from Dropbox, OneDrive, SharePoint or other systems for new implementations is very important. The man-hours required to migrate for a large contractor (GC or Sub) can add up and set a bad first impression to the product.

    Features to ease initial migration/implementation pays dividends when building new customer buy-in.

    Trimble Connect can be utilized but to my knowledge you are only able to upload a single file at a time, you cannot download an entire structured local server file to Trimble Connect, being able to do this and be able to to sync back and forth simultaneously to the local folder would be a game changer especially when an estimator or project manager is trying to set up a new job in the system, it would make everyone's lives more efficient and that way a document does not get missed being moved into the system.

so you can save documents to the project sight library without having to save the document somewhere temporarily so you can then upload it. Would be easier if you could save as and browse into the PS Library from windows explorer somehow.

Countless man hours are spent transferring a project server's point file system to the project management software's point file system at the closeout/delivery stage of a job. Prolog made this very difficult to do because of the inability to load ...
