		<description><![CDATA[I recently had the opportunity to speak with ShareFile customer and Greymane Contracting President, Alex DeCouto. Alex shared some insight with me on how his company uses ShareFile to streamline daily operations. 
Greymane is a medium-sized general contracting company that services the hospitality industry as well as commercial, institutional, and high-end residential markets. The company regularly bids on different projects, and exchanges a large volume of documents and drawings. “These documents frequently go out to dozens of subcontractors and suppliers for pricing,” says Alex. ]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><strong><strong></strong><strong>I recently had the opportunity to speak with ShareFile customer and <a href="http://www.greymane.bm/">Greymane Contracting</a> President, Alex DeCouto. <strong>Alex shared some insight with me on how his company uses ShareFile to streamline daily operations.</strong></strong></strong></strong></p>
<p>Greymane is a medium-sized general contracting company that services the hospitality industry as well as commercial, institutional, and high-end residential markets. The company regularly bids on different projects, and exchanges a large volume of documents and drawings. “<em>These documents frequently go out to dozens of subcontractors and suppliers for pricing</em>,” says Alex.</p>
<p>The company was challenged with the high cost of printing prior to ShareFile.  Alex tells me that in one year, <em>Greymane spent more than $50,000 with a local printer</em>.  Not only was the company spending a significant amount on printing costs, but it was also using valuable time in the process.</p>
<p>Alex says, “<em>Before ShareFile, it would take us the better part of 3 or 4 days to get done what now happens instantaneously. We really needed an efficient way to make inquiries with subcontractors and suppliers for various elements of a project and luckily, we found our solution in ShareFile</em>.”</p>
<p>With password-protected access Greymane can be confident about security and have complete control over which suppliers and subcontractors have access to projects. Employees at the company can monitor activity by tracking exactly which documents have been downloaded, at what time, and by whom.</p>
<p>“<em>To put it simply, ShareFile has paid for itself tenfold</em>,” says Alex.</p>
