GWDG Pad

Your Requirement

You would like to work on text documents or presentations on your own or with your team in a simple way, relying on a number of useful features. Your changes should be visible in real time for both you and your colleagues. You would like to be able to restrict read or write access to your documents to protect them from undesired access. Additionally, you would like to be flexible on how to view and edit your documents – both mobile as well as desktop access should be supported.
