P4 overview

What is P4?

Perforce P4 (formerly Helix Core) is version control and collaboration management software designed to help businesses streamline source codes and digital assets management operations via a unified portal. The platform enables development teams of all sizes to collaborate on different projects and share files.

P4 enables enterprises to simultaneously process multiple transactions, send files across different remote servers, and store information about assets and version history in a centralized repository for future reference. The application includes multi-factor authentication functionality, which allows users to provide secure access to authorized users. Administrators can also facilitate role-based permissions to members across departments by IP address and users.
