The introduction of Autodesk Vault into the Civil3D product line is generating some interest in the custom work we've done with Vault... in particular:
- Automated Vault Backup, which not only schedules the backup, but also sends the admin a nice report about the status of the backup.
- Active Directory Integration, batch-load a bunch of users from Active Directory into Vault, or even do synchronization and/or authentication against any LDAP database.
New Project from Template Tool
We also just completed a tool which addresses something that doesn't seem quite right... the lack of a template project infrastructure within Vault/Civil3D. While Vault can do a "Design Copy", that typically works against a single parent file, rather than a whole folder. Our tool allows you to point to multiple Vault folders as "templates", and makes it easy to get a new project folder with all of the files renamed with a job name/number (and all the XREFs preserved).
These are still custom solutions (not packaged)... but if anyone had interest in them, drop a line to devfeedback@avat.com.
