The challenge
Why files get messy in multi-site
Once a business has a second location, informal filing stops working. Each site develops its own habits and documents, and head office can no longer tell which version anyone is using.
What to keep here
Documents teams typically store
- Company-wide policies and forms
- Per-site licences and certificates
- Site maintenance records
- Marketing artwork
- Supplier agreements
- Management reports
In practice
How Orbis Drive helps
Share one allowance
The whole business uses one storage allowance, with no per-person charges.
Separate when needed
Use a second workspace for material only directors should see, such as finance or HR.

Sketch the top-level structure with your team before moving anything.

Move the most-requested files first
Do not attempt a complete migration on day one. Begin with what people ask for most.

Invite your team
Create an invitation per person and let them know where to find things.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is there a charge for each staff member?
No. Plans are priced per workspace and all members share its storage.
Do staff have to install anything?
No. They sign in with a modern web browser, including on a phone.
Can we keep some documents restricted?
Use a separate workspace for restricted documents, because everyone in a workspace can see all of its files.
