Egnyte
AI-powered cloud content platform purpose-built for AEC -- combines file storage and sync with Project Hub (project folder automation, transmittals, close-out), massive file handling for BIM/CAD data, and content governance (DLP, ransomware detection, compliance) -- integrates with Procore, Autodesk, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace.
Hidden Pricing
3.4 /5 composite score
The most AEC-tailored of the general-purpose cloud file platforms -- Project Hub automates project folder creation, transmittals, and close-out, the Specialized File Handler handles large BIM models and CAD files natively, and AI-driven content governance (sensitive data classification, ransomware detection, AI Safeguards) adds security depth absent in consumer-grade drives; explicit Procore and Autodesk integrations make it a natural companion to construction PM platforms, but per-user pricing ($22-$48/user/mo) is higher than Dropbox or Google Workspace, and the self-serve signup flow still requires a sales conversation for the higher tiers.

Alternatives in Document Control
Cloud file storage and document management layer of Microsoft 365 -- OneDrive for Business provides personal cloud storage and file sync, while SharePoint document libraries serve as shared team repositories for drawings, specifications, models, and project documentation, forming the de facto CDE backplane for AEC firms on M365.
4.6/5
Cloud productivity and file storage suite centered on Google Drive -- personal My Drive and team Shared Drives provide cloud-native file storage, sharing, and real-time collaboration on Docs, Sheets, and Slides, used by many AEC firms as a lightweight document repository and collaboration layer alongside CAD/BIM authoring tools.
4.6/5
Cloud file storage, sync, and sharing platform used by AEC firms as a project document repository for CAD, BIM, PDF, and visual content files -- with team folders, version history, large file transfers, e-signature (Dropbox Sign), video review (Dropbox Replay), and AI-powered search (Dash).
4.2/5
No-code data integration and analytics platform purpose-built for AEC -- connects 50+ construction data sources (Revit, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Procore, Oracle Primavera, SAP) into a single source of truth with ELT/ETL pipelines, real-time dashboards, and a no-code analytics workspace.
