Document Cloud moves Adobe further down the SaaS track

Adobe DC


Adobe's latest offering Adobe Document Cloud will, says the company, address the waste and inefficiency associated with document processes.


It's made up of a set of integrated services that use a consistent online profile and personal document hub. Users will be able to create, review, approve, sign and track documents whether on a desktop or mobile device.


"People and businesses are stuck in document-based processes that are slow, wasteful, and fragmented. While most forms of content have successfully made the move to digital (books, movies, music), documents and the process of working with them have not, and that needs to change," says Bryan Lamkin, senior vice president of Technology and Corporate Development at Adobe. "Adobe Document Cloud will revolutionize and simplify how people get work done with critical documents".


Document Cloud uses Acrobat DC, with a touch-enabled user interface, which will be available both via a subscription model subscription and as a one-time purchase. Its Tool Center offers simplified and quick access to the tools you use most. Also, Acrobat DC uses Photoshop imaging magic to convert any paper document into a digital, editable file that can be sent for signature.


The subscription includes eSign Services that allows users to electronically send and sign any document from any device. There's also a Mobile Link feature to allow access to documents on the move and a Send & Track feature that allows documents to be shared whilst still protecting sensitive information.


None of these features is particularly innovative in itself, but Document Cloud is significant since it joins Adobe's Creative Cloud and Marketing Cloud in a move towards shifting the business to an SaaS model.


The Adobe website has a video preview of Document Cloud in action or you can read more about it on the company's blog.
