Adobe and Microsoft have teamed up to boost productivity in today's workplaces

Adobe established a partnership with Microsoft on Wednesday in order to improve how work is done in modern organisations.

Adobe claims that it continues to provide its joint customers with the most modern work experience possible, centred on technology that improves teamwork, collaboration, and efficiencies, thanks to new improvements in business processes and intelligent automation.

"Through the deeper integrations between Adobe and Microsoft announced today, we continue to innovate to elevate today's dynamic and quickly growing workforce," said Ashley Still, SVP/GM of Digital Media at Adobe.

Adobe said it will continue to expand on the Microsoft Teams platform to enable editing, commenting, converting, signing, and collaborating on PDFs richer, more efficient, and more personal without having to switch between apps, user interfaces, or separate log-ins.

Single Sign-On (SSO) was recently added to Acrobat for Teams, as well as the personal tab, a home page for collecting all of your latest documents, tools, and collaboration into one view.

These additional functionalities, as well as the ability to sign from a Teams notice, are also available in Acrobat Sign for Teams. You can now instantaneously sign off on a document without having to stop and open a browser or app.

Frame.io, which is now owned by Adobe, will demonstrate a Live Share integration with Frame.io at Build. This integration will demonstrate how Frame.io and Microsoft Teams may be used together to offer synchronised, interactive work-in-progress reviews.

Within the desktop version of Acrobat, users will soon be able to apply Purview Information Protection labels and policies to their most essential documents.

Purview Information Protection must be added to conventional business contracts previously shared as PDFs, such as purchase orders, partnership agreements, and service contracts, according to the company, ensuring that only important stakeholders can view, manage, and approve those documents.

"By introducing Power Automate straight into the Acrobat Sign experience, we are making it easier for users to streamline repetitive activities as well as integrate data and apps," the business added.

"This implies that businesses will be able to swiftly automate the workflow and audit of e-signature across hundreds of business activities, such as field service requests, sales contracts, new hire forms, and IT requests," it noted.
