This defeats the purpose of document collaboration, but it happens because the recipient is simply not familiar with how a Google Doc operates. It's happened a few times – we send a Google Doc to someone (accessed by a link) only to have them save it or paste it into a Word document and send it back to us with their changes. One issue we run up against is knowing how to invite someone to edit a Google Doc, and making sure that the person we're asking knows how to edit it. Google Docs eliminates these frustrations, and adds some really cool collaborative features that Word just doesn't have, like real-time commenting – but we'll get to that in a minute.īut, we know from experience that not everyone is on board this train. Working in a Google Doc is still unfamiliar to many people. Who has the most recent version? Where is the most recent version? In my experience, it is the opposite of a streamlined process. I'm sure you've experienced the clunky, frustrating process of editing a Word document via email between one or more people. Track changes, forward the file in an email, accept changes, revise, email back.
So why would you want to use Google Docs? As part of the apps suite, Google Docs is a word processing app for teams and it allows you to create and manage documents online very easily.
We use Google Workspace (formerly GSuite, aka Google Apps) and one of our favorite apps is Google Docs. But what about collaborative document editing? We've got you covered with this detailed how-to. We use a variety of apps like Basecamp, Pivotal, Slack, and Dropbox to communicate and share files, notes, and tasks. At Mojo, we rely on collaboration tools and productivity apps to get more done throughout the day.
