IT for architecture firms

IT that keeps pace with your design vision.

Managed IT and cybersecurity for architecture firms across Chicagoland that live in Revit, AutoCAD, and rendering tools, collaborate across offices and clients, and cannot afford slow systems on deadline.

  • Revit + BIM performance
  • Large file collaboration
  • Client data protection

The challenge

Your files are huge. Your deadlines are not flexible.

Architecture firms push workstations, storage, and networks harder than almost any other professional service.

Heavy design workloads

Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, and rendering need the right GPUs, storage, and sync strategy to stay fast.

Collaboration everywhere

Teams share models with consultants, clients, and remote staff, and version control cannot break.

Valuable intellectual property

Drawings and designs are your product, and they need to be protected from loss and theft.

How WEBIT helps

Fast workstations, reliable models.

We spec, support, and secure the technology your designers depend on, and plan upgrades before performance becomes a bottleneck.

  • Workstation and GPU specs matched to your design software
  • Cloud and hybrid file collaboration for large models
  • Autodesk and design software licensing support
  • Backup of project archives with tested restores
  • Secure remote access for designers and consultants

Frameworks and requirements

Protecting design data

  • NIST CSF
  • Cyber insurance
  • Client confidentiality

Many cyber insurance carriers now require MFA, EDR, and tested backups. We implement and document all three.

Can you speed up Revit and AutoCAD?

Usually, yes. We assess workstations, storage, and network bottlenecks and recommend changes based on your actual workloads.

How do you handle large model collaboration?

We design cloud or hybrid file sharing around your project workflow, with version control, access permissions, and backups.

Do you support Autodesk licensing?

Yes. We manage licensing, installs, and updates for Autodesk and other design software, and coordinate with vendors when issues arise.
