What are Company Files used for?
Company Files is a centralized workspace for managing company-wide documents in Digs. It allows you to store, share, and collaborate on files that aren’t tied to a specific project—perfect for managing legal, permit, engineering, and corporate documents across your entire organization.
🔍 How are Company Files different from project files?
Project files are stored within individual Digs projects and only accessible to those involved in that specific build.
Company Files, on the other hand, is a workspace-level document hub that supports:
Organization-wide collaboration
Templates, legal docs, engineering files, and permits
File reuse across multiple projects
🧠 Why does this matter?
Previously, users had to rely on external tools (like Dropbox or Google Drive) for storing company documents. With Company Files, everything lives in one place—connected to your projects when needed, but not limited to them.
