Box has released three new integrations into its content management and collaboration platform with support for Microsoft Office Online with real time co-authoring, Office for iOS and Outlook.com as part of the Microsoft Cloud Storage Partner Program.
With Box for Office Online with real time co-authoring users can make concurrent, real time edits to content secured in Box including Word, Excel and PowerPoint files.
The introduction of Box integration with Office for iOS builds on the ability to preview content in Box from Office for iOS applications, so that users can create and edit Office files saved in Box directly from Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps for iOS.
Box integration with Outlook.com provides the ability for joint customers to attach content in Box to emails in the new Outlook.com, replacing the need to save items to a desktop before attaching to an email, and enabling secure email collaboration that’s fully in the cloud.
