How to send drawings for markup with multiple users

Commnia Inbox facilitates  communication and a collaborative workspace for multiple users on a project to discuss and track design changes as they are added.

Builders, Subcontractors, Consultants and Clients can all discuss and work on one drawing at the same time where ever they are. Each user can open, read, mark up and share multiple PDF documents for review instantly saving you time and increasing efficiency.

There are two ways you can start the collaboration process.

1. Via Inbox
2. Via Document Register

Markup collaboration is only applicable for documents that are attached via the Document Register.

We will introduce this feature to Commnia Drive and Local Device documents in the near future.
