DocVerse Brings Real-time Sharing and Group-editing to Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- DocVerse today announced the launch of its new downloadable plug-in for Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) Word, PowerPoint and Excel, which turns those applications into full-fledged, Web-based, collaboration tools. The plug-in makes any .doc, .ppt, or .xls file into a secure, web-based document that can be shared and edited by multiple users anytime, anywhere.

Real-time Sharing

DocVerse makes sharing Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents synonymous with saving them. Anytime a DocVerse user saves a document on their desktop, DocVerse automatically creates a Web-based version of it in the cloud, which is instantly shared with whomever the author has specified. All Web-based versions of a document receive a unique, secure, shareable URL that never changes and can be accessed by anyone the author invites to view it - whether they have downloaded the DocVerse plug-in or not. Users can view and comment on the most recent version of the document online using any Web browser, or via the DocVerse plug-in inside of Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel.

Simultaneous Group-editing

Groups of DocVerse users are able to use Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel to simultaneously edit the same document at the same time - whether online or offline. DocVerse tracks, manages and syncs all changes to merge them correctly into one updated version of the document - even if they save changes to the same document at the same exact time. For DocVerse users, that means no more e-mailing of attachments or repeatedly cutting-and-pasting changes manually to collaborate on documents with colleagues.

"This is huge step forward for Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel, which turns those unconnected islands on 600 million desktops worldwide into connected, Web-enabled collaboration tools in a way that no product has ever done before," said Shan Sinha, CEO of DocVerse. "And, best of all, you don't need to learn anything new. DocVerse quickly and easily plugs into Word, PowerPoint and Excel, so you can keep working with those applications exactly the same way you always have - it just makes them better."
