Real Time Collaboration in Office Web Apps

Great news for our Office 365 customers!  Real-time co-authoring is now available in Office Web Apps.  If you don’t know what Office Web Apps can do for you – check this link out.  In a nutshell – Office Web Apps allows you to edit Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files without having to actually open up Office on your desktop.  This is a great solution for plant floor staff, highly mobile staff, or users who (for whatever reason) just don’t have Office installed.

If you are working together on a spec sheet, a budget (how we use this functionality internally), or a proposal – your entire team can work together right through the browser.

You can read the full post over at the Office Blog.  No need to press the refresh button – your changes will be seen real time!
