Offline: Large File Solution for Unreliable Networks

The QuickPlace offline feature is an ideal way to deal with slow or unreliable internet connections. QuickPlace offline works by downloading a full replica of your QuickPlace to your local computer (workstation or laptop) and then operating disconnected from the internet. You can then schedule or use the automatic schedule to synchronize to the server on the internet. So, this means you are immune from any internet disruptions while you are working. You can upload or attach as many large files as you like and because you are working locally, the speed is as fast as your computer can handle.
After you have finished working, you can start the synchronization process and leave your computer do all the hard work. It uses a very solid approach to synchronization that ensures the information is broken up into small enough chunks to get through any type of connection. It will then assemble them at the other end and retry any part that did not work (without having to start uploading from the very start). This process can take as long as it needs and does not require you to wait for any progress bars or retry any uploads.
So, if you have to work with very large attachments and your internet connection gets clogged and need another solution rather than "retry later", you can use QuickPlace offline to work and synchronize to share the files with your team. To work offline, you just need to click "work offline" from your QuickPlace (ProjectLounge Premium and above) and follow the instructions. ProjectLounge has already done all the hard work on the server side to make sure it "just works".
