Former Microsoft employees googled MS Office

More than ten years ago, Microsoft won the WordPerfect office suite, and since then, Microsoft Office has had virtually no feature improvements. The same is true in the browser market: IE stopped in development for many years until a worthy competitor appeared in the face of Mozilla. Therefore, we can only welcome the emergence of startups who are trying to create the next generation office suite on the bones of Microsoft Office.

The most interesting is that the founders of one of these startups were two former employees of Microsoft. This is a small Californian company DocVerse , the first mention of which was leaked to the press .

DocVerse has released a small 1MB plugin for Office 2007, giving this monster new functionality, including missing features from Google Docs, that is, the ability to simultaneously edit files via the Internet.

The result was, as the founders of the startup say, the easiest and most effective tool for co-editing documents. Analysts remind that similar add-ins for MS Office are already on the market, including something Microsoft itself does in the Office Live Workspace service . However, the founders of DocVerse claim that their development is much better than all existing ones. Well, let's wait and see.
