How do I use Microsoft Word to open a Google Drive cloud document?

Cloud Based Document Management System

  • Cloud based Document Management System (DMS): what is the lastest and greatest (Mid 2012)? I looked through the archives before asking, but a lot of the responses came from 2009 which is like two decades in the IT world. I'm looking for a cloud based DMS for my org. I have about 125 users, all using OSX and Google Apps. My users are spread all over the US. Basic Needs: Lives in the cloud, Easy to use interface, have version control, and strong permission control. Nice to have: Google Apps integration. So far I've seen SpringCM, LaserFiche, Knowledge Tree, and something awful called SafeView. Google Drive seems to be heading in the right direction, but I dont have the Administrative control needed for something like this. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Might http://www.cloudlock.com/ add enough to Google Drive to give you what you need? Don't use it ourselves (yet), but have heard from others who do.

Cloudlock seems to be all about compliance and auditing, not quite the same as document management. But thanks for the reply.
