Rival companies Google Drive and Dropbox have announced their collaboration between their respective services, enabling the users of Dropbox Business to create Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides from within their Dropbox.
The new feature will allow users to open up the Google files and edit using the Google editor right from their Dropbox account.
The updated version is also expected to have a few collaborative features including sharing files on both the platforms without worrying about providing permission on both.
The approach by both the teams is commendable and users will find it very useful in their workflow.
