Hi Craig,
I think your Sharepoint is configured wrong. If you are on Office 365, it supports real-time collaboration. My paralegal and I can open the exact same file at the same time, and I can see edits he makes in real-time and watch them magically appear on my screen. There is no syncing to the cloud because it is happening in the Cloud to begin with. There is also an internal chat feature that allows me to start chatting with my paralegal inside the Microsoft Word 365 interface. You should push your tech guy to get it so you have real-time collaboration, it is a basic feature of Office 365.
Best,
Nick

Listmates, You not see my name appear on any list of the technically savvy,  we recently switched to Sharepoint which is supposed to allow staff in the office and those working from home to all work on files and have the documents updated and stored in the cloud.  If an attorney requests the paralegal to make changes to a document and the paralegal saves it the attorney should be able to open in and find the changes made.   What we are experiencing is that changes made are not always reflected in the saved document.  When we pull the backup the saved document is there with changes but it appears it never got sent to the cloud.  This is an intermittent issue but making everyone crazy.  Our IT guy says it’s a problem with Microsoft and Sharepoint.     Anyone having similar experiences?
