Seamless and secure collaboration on documents

Through this partnership, industries which need to deal with sensitive data, get access to the most innovative online office applications that allow them working together in real time right from the complex and secure ownCloud environment.

Providing the perfect compatibility with Microsoft Office formats, ONLYOFFICE enables ownCloud users to work with all common file formats (DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, TXT, ODT, ODS, ODP, DOC, XLS, PPT, PPS, EPUB, RTF, HTML, HTM, PDF) and make use of the great majority of formatting options: add links, tables and graphics, insert diagrams, autoshapes, mathematical formulas, edit headers and footers, create style sheets, make design changes to the entire document with two mouse clicks, and much more.

Integrated into ownCloud, ONLYOFFICE makes collaboration within a company easier providing a set of advanced collaborative features, including two co-editing modes, public sharing, change tracking, version history, chat, and comments.

Through the partnership with ONLYOFFICE, we can offer a joint solution that enables the access and editing of Microsoft Office file formats from the ownCloud front-end in real time.
