Why businesses use Google Docs to collaborate on files more smoothly

>> Why businesses use Google Docs to collaborate on files more smoothly

- Google Docs overview video

1. Protect your company's documents – Administrators have fine-grained controls to manage how broadly employees can share corporate documents.

2. Work together without the hassles of attachments – Coworkers can share the same online copy of each doc, spreadsheet or presentation. All revisions are saved and recoverable.

3. Present and publish through the web – Presentations can be delivered to remote audiences, and documents and spreadsheets can be published internally for employees to view.

4. Interoperate with traditional file formats – Import and collaboratively edit or publish from .doc, .xls, .csv, .ppt, .txt, .html, .pdf and other formats. You can export as well.
