< More collaboration scenarios
Microsoft 365 unlocks the modern ways of working. No matter if you’re working from home or if there’s an emergency while you’re away, you can have the peace of mind that you’ve got the tools to help you adapt from wherever you are. Whether you’re using a laptop or your mobile device, you can easily attend meetings online, share Office files, co-author in real time, and be productive from anywhere.
Collaborate with select peers
If you want others to edit with you, you can easily share files and collaborate with trusted peers for a fresh perspective. When you work together this way, only those select people can access and edit shared files. Later, you can always share to a team when you feel like it’s ready!
Collaborate as a team
Collaboration as a team means having as little friction as possible. You want to seamlessly build ideas, organize files, attend meetings, and collaborate with others. With Microsoft Teams, everyone can work together as one—it doesn’t matter if someone is working remotely or in a different time zone, you'll get it done.
Start in the cloud
When you work with your files in OneDrive, you’ve got a foundation to share, edit together, and collaborate. No more emailing attachments, no more juggling multiple versions, and no longer restricted to your office computer.

Start as a team
From home, the office, or across the globe, staying in the loop starts with Microsoft Teams. A team can be as formal or flexible as you need it to be. Create a team for everyone who shares the same manager, or create a team for a special project.

This means that when you work on a file, so can they. You’ll see their changes and they’ll see yours—as you make them! This is co-authoring with Microsoft 365.
