Years ago, the collaboration on a Salesforce document gave us the sense of a long and intricate process. A document had to be shared from one person to another for contribution, and, it took ages to get the document back to the originator. 

But now is the age where things happen in real-time. The document collaboration in Salesforce is no different from it. Understanding the evolving demand for streamlined actions on Salesforce documents, XfilesPro offers real-time document collaboration functionality, where both internal and external teams/users can work together on documents. 

In this article, we will discuss how XfilesPro enables the real-time document collaboration experience in Salesforce and how it helps you drive business more efficiently.  

Before that, let’s take a glance at XfilesPro.

The Most Installed Document Management System for Salesforce

XfilesPro understands your pain of upgrading the file storage space consecutively for a certain cost. As you can’t help with the growth of documents inside Salesforce or the storage overloading consequence follows, XfilesPro offers a free hand by freeing up your Salesforce file storage space by migrating documents to external storage.

Now, let’s get back to the document collaboration aspect. How does XfilesPro make this magic work within Salesforce? 

XfilesPro’s Bi-Sync Functionality: The Magician

It’s XfilesPro’s Bi-sync functionality that brings about the magic. With Bi-sync, you can sync your Salesforce records with respective files/folders in the external storage post-migration process. This helps you have the modifications made on the Salesforce records to be reflected in the corresponding documents in the external system, and vice versa, instantaneously. 

We will make this more clear to you. 

Imagine the scenario. One of your internal team members is working on a document inside the CRM while an external user also modifies the respective document in the external storage. With Bi-sync, you can have the changes made by both of them to be mirrored in Salesforce documensta and the same on external storage right away, ensuring an effective real-time document collaboration experience. 

Now that you discovered how real-time document collaboration happens in the CRM, it’s time to look into the benefits that this powerful capability unleashes.
