File-sharing services are stronger at storing and editing files. Clauseloop is built for the documents of a certification: each client kept separate, every document with a review status both sides can see, evidence tied to the clause it proves, and a portal in your brand.
| What you need | File-sharing services | Clauseloop |
|---|---|---|
| Storage and editing | Large storage and real-time co-editing | Upload and download; no editing in the browser, and file size is limited by the storage server |
| Keeping clients apart | Folders and permissions you set up and maintain | Every client separate by design; portal users reach only their organisation's files |
| Review status | Comments, or approval flows you build | Pending, under review, approved, rejected or needs revision, the same on both sides and updated by audit decisions |
| Evidence for a clause | A file in a folder | Evidence attached to the clause it proves, in the gap analysis and the audit |
| Asking for a document | An email | A document request that appears in the client's portal |
| Electronic signature | Included with Dropbox | Not included |

Keep a file-sharing service for your firm's internal working files.
Share with clients through Clauseloop when the document is part of the certification, so its status and its clause stay with it.
