What is Live Documents?
Live Documents is a real-time collaborative document editing software designed for teams that need to work on files together from different locations. It works with Microsoft Office file types like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
With Live Documents, multiple people can edit a document at the same time and changes made by one person are instantly visible to others. This allows teams to collaborate seamlessly on files rather than emailing versions back and forth.
Key features include:
- Real-time co-editing - Multiple cursors from different users are displayed in the file so you can always see where others are working.
- Comments and annotations - Annotate and discuss parts of the document right within the editor.
- Version history - See a record of all changes made to access previous versions if needed.
- User management permissions - Control editing, viewing, and commenting capabilities for your team.
- Integrations - Integrates with popular workspace tools like Slack, Trello, Google Drive for easy access to files.
With its intuitive interface and robust collaboration features, Live Documents increases productivity for teams that frequently work on Office documents together from disparate locations.
