Using NetDocuments with Word Online

ND-MAC

What if you could open documents and edit them in an online document management system without downloading them? You can with NetDocuments, which has a way to open a document in Word Online, allow you to edit it, and save it back into NetDocuments. This means you can be on a computer without Word, and still edit a Word document. Office 2016 for Mac doesn’t have the same plugins for Word and Excel that Office for Windows does. Therefore if you are using Office on your Mac,  you will live this feature. The same can be said if you are on a computer without Word and need to edit a document.
