Not the familiar file.The right workflow.

A file that goes back and forth by e-mail, or a document everyone works on at once? Here is what Peak Docs can do today, and what it can't. For Microsoft Word you check the same questions yourself.

What decides it for you?

Does the team work on the same state without mailing file versions?

Compare by my workflow
One clear thought

Your workflow sets the standard.

Same questions. Two tools. No winner decided in advance.

01 / The basis for deciding

Your questions. On equal footing.

Pick a focus. Each row asks both tools the same question. You fill in the answer for Microsoft Word after your own check.

Transparency is part of the comparison.

Source code is evidence of implementation. It does not replace a current live test.

Our standard

No victory pose.A clear yardstick.

This page describes only the checked state of Peak Docs. Check Microsoft Word's features, prices and limits on the vendor's own pages.

The open evidence file

One statement. One traceable source.

We say nothing about Microsoft Word here. You check it on the vendor's pages.

  1. 01

    Same question

    The same task, the same scope, the same requirements for both tools.

  2. 02

    Source before verdict

    Register, your own test and vendor claims stay different kinds of evidence.

  3. 03

    Unknown stays unknown

    What is planned in Peak Docs is marked as planned. What you haven't checked stays empty.

02 / From feature to moment

Test the moment that matters to you.

A check turns a feature list into a concrete trial. Pick the first test for both tools.

Where do you want to start?
Which task do you want to compare?

The same task in both tools. The protocol prepares the test; it doesn't run it.

Your test runFor both options
The same task

The e-mail round

Have three people comment on the same document, once as a file, once live.

What you check

You see where feedback gets lost.

03 / Before the next step

Fits better? Check the switch first.

The interface is only part of the decision. Documents, structure, history and the way back belong to it. Peak Docs imports Markdown and plain text today.

  1. 01Clarify inventory and export format
  2. 02Test the import with Markdown or text
  3. 03Plan a test run and the way back

Switching is a separate decision. Prepare it and keep the open evidence in view.

The way back counts

Check first. Then switch.

Import into Peak Docs works with Markdown and plain text today.

The next sensible step

Try it with your own workflow.

Open Peak Docs in the browser and run the same task you test in your current tool.

Clarity before choice

What matters stays visible.

Missing evidence is neither a no nor an advantage.
