Needs
An all-in-one tool that supports drawing various diagrams and plans required in building design.
John Williams is an accomplished draftsman in building design. He identified that he spends a considerable amount of time switching from one app to another to draw different diagrams. Compatibility was also a glitch when sharing the drawings with the team.

Challenges

Improvement in Communication and Coordination

The construction industry needs a combination of work from many different teams. They need a framework for communication and coordination. Standardized diagrams allow everyone to understand the other team's perspective quickly and correctly.

High Efficiency

Switching between different apps for different drawings takes time and kills the workflow. When you have all your drawings in one platform with cloud storage, the access and collaboration with the team are quick.

Easy Distribution

The distribution between different teams needs a format that everyone can access without conversion or installation. Also, it is important to keep the versions of drawings in check to avoid confusion.

The Solutions
John is always looking for innovative solutions to help his workspace. He is always trying different solutions, new gadgets, and tools to support the process. EdrawMax Online is also his discovery, and the whole team is now benefiting from this tool. Since it has a fully functional free program, he could try it without any cost involved before introducing it to his colleagues. Once he was fully satisfied and his coworkers started complimenting him for his professional-looking accurate drawing, he was convinced that EdrawMax could make a difference in their work.
John's team has observed many positive changes after adopting EdrawMax. They consider it their best solution for construction drawings, diagrams, and plans. John also saved a lot of time that would have been spent in learning new softwares and tools. His team was also able to prevent costly revisions by creating different types of diagrams. They could detect conflicts and confusions, evaluate design options, and pick up mistakes before even material cost is incurred.
Now, once the drawings are ready, how would you share them with your colleagues? John thinks distribution features in multiple popular formats are an important requirement for better team collaboration and sharing of documents. PDF, PNG, JPEG, and other graphics formats are the most acceptable and portable document formats. These formats can be accessed directly on any computer or mobile device.
Cloud Storage
Cloud storage provides many benefits to the company. It serves as a common workplace for working and storing diagrams. They can give customized permission to each user group depending on their needs. So, the plumbing team can share all plumbing diagrams and may not have access to floor plans and so on. Secondly, the version control on the files is automatic, and there is no confusion because everyone has the same file. Revision history is also available.
