@scottalanmiller thanks! I hope you meant ONLYOFFICE)

@jaredbusch well, I think LibreOffice online can be integrated with Nextcloud, but still Collabora is their official partner. For me, both have that open source spirit of freedom which I like, cause you know :smiling_face:

ONLYOFFICE is different from Libre, cause it uses docx, xlsx and pptx as basic formats, which is convenient if you work with these docs, just like my teammates and me. And believe the majority of docs exist in these formats, so I guess this office suite might be useful for many) I also like its collaboration tools (and I can speak about it for so long, so I won't :zipper-mouth_face:)

@scottalanmiller said in ONLYOFFICE launches a new version with table of contents:

Seems like organizations that lean towards MS Office file formats might lean to OnlyOffice, and those that don't use those might lean to LibreOffice?

I couldn't agree more)

@scottalanmiller I can ask our QA on Monday. Maybe we tried it before, or we can try it now (now = on Monday)

@emad-r said in ONLYOFFICE launches a new version with table of contents:

even MS office locks file on the cloud and wants only 1 person to edit, but this thing allows multiple edits real time and with no audit

oh, I'm not sure but maybe you are talking about the problem that I also encountered. Is it about losing data in spreadsheets in real-time when you could do no ctrl-z when somebody (or yourself) ruined some of the data? I lost some items from my media base shared with my teammates, but that happened ages ago.

Do you know that you can grant different access rights - read only, review and full access. You can also switch to a different co-editing mode - Strict in which there area you are currently editing is locked for the others

@scottalanmiller said in ONLYOFFICE launches a new version with table of contents:

if you use LOOnline with NextCloud, can you ALSO use OnlyOffice and run them side by side with one handling MS Office formatted documents and one handling ODF?

I asked our QA guys as I promised and that's what I learned: we tried this with Collabora (not LOOnline, but I think it would be the same) and ONLYOFFICE together, and while ONLYOFFICE associates itself only with OOXML files (docx, xlsx and pptx), Collabora grabs all the formats including ODF and OOXML. So, it's highly unlikely that will be comfortable to use them both at the same time.

And maybe this would useful - https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/onlyoffice-owncloud/issues. You can discuss it with ONLYOFFICE tech guys there

@scottalanmiller here's an interesting topic from the Nextcloud community - https://help.nextcloud.com/t/collabora-and-onlyoffice-together-in-nc13/31118

@emad-r this app can be connected to ONLYOFFICE cloud (corporate or free personal), or to the self-hosted version so that you can work with your files stored online. It does not work with NC, but thnx for the idea.

However, we have an app to connect ONLYOFFICE server to Nextcloud - https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/onlyoffice-owncloud

Also might be important:

ONLYOFFICE and ownCloud are official partners now - https://owncloud.com/owncloud-delivers-easy-to-use-collaboration-solution-through-partnership-with-onlyoffice/

@travisdh1 sorry for late reply. we have everything explained on our website (as @scottalanmiller already said https://www.onlyoffice.com/onlyoffice-blockchain.aspx).

You can also have a look at this presentation https://onlyo.co/2D4DwaI

We do not expect storage space problems soon as we use the network for password storing and transferring only.

I'll have to look at the details, was anything done to lower the chain growth over time and change tracking resource usage?

At the moment the network is for testing purposes only, but yes we are working hard to prevent issues that might occur. We also presented this technology at two IT conferences in Europe, and the majority of questions asked were about the network))

Please, bring us some feedback whether it is clear and comfortable to use, we are eager to hear that :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Great news everyone!

@scottalanmiller looks like you did my job here :smiling_face:

That's right ONLYOFFICE uses OOXML (docx, xlsx, pptx) as core formats and is aimed at replacing MS Office. We work with ODF using conversion.
