Acrobat.com gets closer to reality

Online office suite Acrobat.com is still like a dress at the fashion show - beautiful, expensive, and you can wear it only on the podium. But in Adobe continues to work hard, update the service and step by step it becomes more ready for business. The other day Acrobat.com added 35 new features. And the first feature we were pleased to see is the idea voting system Acrobat.com Ideas. The main new feature inside the service is the new structure based on file manager. Now, all files are stored in one place and the main menu of service contains only 2 tabs: Files (for file management) and Meetings (for web-conferencing).



Adobe online editors for documents, spreadsheets and presentations are no longer positioned as separate services, but simply used to work with the files stored in the file manager. The tool for converting files to PDF can be also found in the File Manager menu. So Acrobat.com come to the same structure, as Google Docs and Zoho Docs. The new structure also emphasizes the main original benefit of Acrobat.com - the web conferencing service, that could potentially attract users from Google Apps and Zoho.



The second important new feature is mobile client for iPhone and Blackberry. Mobile Acrobat.com enables to manage files, view documents, convert them to PDF and even recognize text on pictures made by mobile camera. We also note the new Outlook plug-in, default SSL support and the removal 10 PDF conversions restriction in the paid accounts.
