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 the two companies was announced last year to work closely to offer Office Online users better to connect their Dropbox accounts 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 have to hit the open button while you’re previewing 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.
