Communicating in real time
The Document Editor allows you to maintain constant team-wide approach to work flow: share files and folders, collaborate on documents in real time, comment certain parts of your documents that require additional third-party input, save document versions for future use, review documents and add your changes without actually editing the file, compare and merge documents to facilitate processing and editing.
In Document Editor you can communicate with your co-editors in real time using the built-in Chat tool as well as a number of useful plugins, i.e. Telegram or Rainbow.
