CloudOn Hits UK AppStore Offering Full MS Office Capability
iPad users in the UK now have access to the free CloudOn (iTunes) application via the AppStore in the UK. The free productivity app is cloud based, allows full Microsoft Office capability, and has Dropbox integration. This allows the mobile professional access to a workspace that allows them to create, edit, and save any Office documents on the go. Early this year the app launched in the United States where it became the number one productivity app for iPad.
The productivity tool offers access to Word, Excel, and PowerPoint and document saving is done directly to a users Dropbox account that is linked with app. The Microsoft office software runs on CloudOn servers and is shown in a view that is easy use on the iPad screen. CloudOn claims that users can do anything using its mobile app they could do with Microsoft office on a full PC.
Users will be able to create new charts on Excel, create new PowerPoint presentations, and create new Word documents. Spell checking is supported, and formulas are supported on Excel workbooks. PowerPoint presentations can be edited and more. The documents are automatically saved so you don't have to worry about losing changes made.
