Case Study: Torti Gallas + Partners centralizes AEC collaboration with LucidLink

The Future of AEC with Torti Gallas + Partners

Torti Gallas + Partners, one of the largest planning and architectural firms in the U.S., needed a better way to centralize project data and give employees fast access to very large AEC files from any location. With offices across the U.S. and internationally, the firm was struggling with aging NetApp storage, fragmented data silos, and VPN-based access that slowed collaboration on Autodesk, Revit, and other large design files.

LucidLink provided the solution with its cloud-based storage collaboration platform, paired with IBM Cloud S3-compatible object storage. By moving to LucidLink, Torti Gallas + Partners consolidated seven network drives and more than a dozen data silos into one filespace, improved file access speed, and enabled real-time collaboration without VPNs. The firm also reported $30K in annual savings, a 55.7% increase in data stored in LucidLink, and daily use by 120 users.
