Launched on Wednesday 18th of February 2020, participants in an Objective Connect Workspace can now edit an Office document online and even co-author with multiple people without ever having to download a local copy. A workspace owner can also allow participants to edit a document online and block download - a reassuring feature when you trust the person you are collaborating with, but not the machine they are using.
An organisation has the option of when they wish to enable Online Edit. While an Office 365 license is not essential to enable the feature, anyone wishing to edit online (internal or external to the business) must have an Office 365 account.
