BIMCloud vs. BIMServer? Isn't it the same thing?

I'm at a loss here and pardon my ignorance but......isn't a BIMServer with Teamwork the same thing as BIMCloud or is it two distinct functions?

I'm collaborating with a firm in South Florida remotely. Right now we are sending via DropBox the PLA's back and forth on the project.

We'd like to get move into a BIMServer Teamwork methodology but....not sure how to go about doing that. We tried to setup a BIMServer (AC22 with Teamworks) but to no avail. Something happened that it would not let me enter the Teamwork file the client created on his end.....it was an arduous and tedeous process only because I probably didn't know what I was doing.

Any suggestions would be helpful. Or can we just call GS Support and have them walk us thru it?

is that "Euros"?...if so, it's $75/MONTH in US Pesos.....I'm not sure I can convince my clients to accept that.
it boils down to a $900 every year investment......hummm....I'm going to need to ponder on how I can sell that.....

Who knows, they do it.

I think they should just try it. It is free for 2 months.
After using it for 2 months, you will not have to convince them, they will be able to decide it for themselves whether that kind of monthly cost is worth it for them or not.
