FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do engineering consultancies need client portal?
Drawings and reports change through a project. A client portal gives clients a secure login to share documents, see progress and find what they need without emailing.
Do we need a custom portal?
Often not. Many practice and accounting systems include a client portal, and the website only needs to link to it clearly.
Is email fine for documents?
Email is hard to secure and track. A portal keeps documents in one controlled place.
