Modern business is increasingly about fast-response transactions, often represented and abstracted as business documents. Creating business documents using tools like Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint is easy but sharing these documents across boundaries - with team members, customers, partners and other stakeholders - is an arduous task.

Live Documents provides knowledge workers with the flexibility to collaboratively develop and manage documents directly with the tools they normally use to create content - namely Microsoft Office.

As a result, individuals can work within the tools they know best, while also gaining the benefits of the scalability, security, and collaboration provided by Live Documents. Live Documents seamlessly converts the lightweight business tools that you have traditionally built using documents and spreadsheets - such as plans, checklists, reports and knowledge bases - into enterprise-strength applications with robust security, transparency, audit and access control that you can access from your desktop or from any browser.
