Is there any way that two or more (up to 5) editors work on the same project and open same video files using local network (NAS or SAN) without using cloud service (Internet connection is slow and they work on 4K Video ) ?
any software or license .. etc?

    As long as all editors have access to the same media files, they can collaborate on the same Team Project. A NAS or SAN will work, or they could use a cloud-based storage solution like Creative Cloud Files or Dropbox, and proxies are supported. They could also use cloned hard drives. The Team Project will search all mounted drives automatically to find media it refers to. If the media isn't found automatically, the editors can use the Media Management drive to locate the local path that holds the media.

    Team Projects synchronizes all of your edits and metadata to the cloud, but it does not synchronize the media.

    This shouldn't be an issue with a slow internet connection as only the project data is stored in the cloud. The media is never copied to the cloud unless you specifically put the media there.

    sorry but you answer nothing !!!
    if the media is never copied to the cloud, so how two editors will work on it ?!
    if i moved it to NAS or SAN can two editors work on it in the same time ?
    (I need 2 or more editors to work on the same project and open same video files in the same time)
