Hi there, I am in Europe and working with a team from a different european country on a collaborative model.
I have set up a collaborative model on a cloud based server, which is saved to a folder which both parties know.
The team in the other country have copied a local file and they sync with central each day.
It seams to be working fine but am i doing something wrong?
For instance there is Collaborate pro etc. that would probably be better? Not sure
Thanks

Better is a relative term. You say it seems to work. So if you take the required precautions (backups etc) you should be ok.
However platforms like Autodesk Collaborate are dedicated to working together and offer additional tools (and possibly security). It depends on your needs and if these tools offer enough benefits to you. These tools have a price tag of course. If this gives enough ROI depends on your needs/workflow..

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.
I had a limited experience with WAN worksharing wile working from home with other team members.
I had to choose a way to worksharing in WAN.
There were two solutions:
For 1. you'll need a initial investment in hardware and operation software . From what I know you'll need also all sort of accelerators so to be effective,,, Many collaborators prefer this because they do not trust in public cloud and so they extend their mistrust to Autodesk Cloud too.

For 2. you'll need to buy a separate license wile AEC Collections contains only DOCS
What is good in this option is that it contains BIM 360 DOCS and you'll have also Autodesk Desktop Connector 's facilities. I've chose this solution and I was pleased. It worked without problems and with no disconnections...
