360 Sync

360 Sync is a file synchronisation solution from Evolve MEP, part of the Applied Software family of tools for the architecture, engineering and construction sector. It was created to address a common problem on construction projects: design, detailing and field teams often store project files across multiple platforms, such as network drives, Autodesk Construction Cloud, BIM 360, Procore, Egnyte, Dropbox and SharePoint, and keeping these locations in step is a laborious and error-prone manual task. When files are out of date, fabrication shops and field crews may build from superseded drawings, causing rework and delays. 360 Sync addresses this by automatically transferring and synchronising project files between applications and storage locations according to rules defined by the user. Its core approach is to act as a connector between the systems contractors already use, ensuring the right versions of drawings, models and documents are available wherever they are needed.

Key capabilities include scheduled and event-driven synchronisation, mapping of folders between different platforms, one-way and bidirectional sync options, handling of large model and drawing files, and logging that provides visibility of what has been transferred and when. Administrators can configure synchronisation jobs centrally, reducing reliance on individuals remembering to upload or download files, while filters allow teams to control which file types or folders are shared with particular groups. The solution supports common construction and document management platforms, making it valuable for firms collaborating with numerous partners that each prefer different tools. It is typically deployed within the customer’s environment and managed by IT or BIM teams. 360 Sync is aimed at mechanical, electrical and plumbing contractors, general contractors, fabrication shops, engineering firms and other construction organisations managing large volumes of project documentation across multiple systems. Pricing starts from around USD 5,000; there is no free trial and no free version.
