 Are you utilizing Google Drive for TBC project file storage?

I'd love to integrate TBC projects into Google Drive, but I have concerns the temp and lock files will create issues through the system.

Looking for any pros/cons/best practices that may help with this!

FYI Tylor,

There's a discussion just starting in Rockpile Solutions too (I had to check it wasn't you)

We use 12d Synergy currently (as others in the company are 12d users)

there is been issue with using ONE DRIVE in my past experience.  Something about TBC having to use a third party storage to bring into TBC.  Which not sure if it will have the same issue with GOOGLE DRIVE.

Are you attempting to work on a TBC project directly within Google drive or just store the project? Trimble connect is a great tool for working with projects online. We have our entire national team using Trimble connect for working with tbc projects and field data.
