Microsoft integrates Dropbox: Now add and save files with Office online

Software giant Microsoft last week launched Office Online integration with Dropbox. The partnership between two companies announced last year to work closely to better offer Office Online users connect their Dropbox account and save files while on the go.

Microsoft Office is already available to Android and iOS users and now it is available in the web version of Office Online. With this new feature, you can connect your Dropbox account with Office Online and browse files, edit and save directly to Dropbox with the same interface.

Users can also access their Office files from Dropbox in a web browser. Viewing these files is very easy- you just have to hit the open button while you’re previewing a Word, PowerPoint or Excel on the web, and you can edit the file right from your browser using Office Online without going another tab.

This is a two-way integration- whether you create a file in Office Online or from Dropbox it’s simply saved in your account without losing your data.
