With Acrobat.com Tables, you can:
* Easily work with others on the same table at the same time. With simultaneous editing, no one is locked out of the table while others are making changes.
* Simplify collaboration. No need to combine multiple versions, e-mail spreadsheets back and forth, or worry about version control, because everyone has access to the latest information, online, all the time.
* Personalize the display of shared data. Use private views to display the information that is important to you, without affecting others who may be viewing or working with the same table.
* Access your data and information from anywhere. Your table is always available online so you and your team can share a data set and add to it regardless of where you are located.
