Version control helps in tracking changes made to documents, allowing multiple users to collaborate without overwriting each other’s work.
Enterprises should implement systems that allow users to set access permissions for shared documents, restricting visibility based on roles or necessity.
Using chat solutions with built-in encryption and compliance capabilities, such as POPIA, ensures that documents are shared securely across the platform.
To maximize the benefits of document sharing through chat, businesses should consider the following best practices:
