Collaborative software from Microsoft Office perfect for offline collaborative development

There are many collaboration software application available in the market today, but many of them rely on online connections. However, there’s one software that lets users work together even in offline mode. That software is Microsoft Office Groove.

I’ve got this software installed on my ASUS laptop and I must admit it does have its advantages and disadvantages. Microsoft Office Groove is perfect for teams working on projects and operations that have members going online and offline, for whatever reasons. For example, when I’m working on Microsoft Office Groove on my laptop in offline mode, all data and information I enter is saved on my system. Once I do go online however, and I connect with my team members working on Groove, all data syncs up and everyone is updated on what everyone else has been working on. Sounds like a relatively good collaboration tool. There are just two disadvantages to Groove. One is the software is not good for projects where members need instantaneous, real-time collaboration. Most of the software’s features are geared towards the development of projects where most of the work can be done offline – such as documentation for software development or websites. Another disadvantage is that the software has already been discontinued by Microsoft Office, and has already been replaced by OneDrive for Business.

Microsoft Office Groove can still be used for many projects where online presence of team members is not a requirement. For this reason alone, I highly recommend this useful application.
