Creating and Editing Documents on Crowd

Last updated on Jul 12, 2024

Crowd's Docs feature is a comprehensive tool that enables users to create and store documents related to their team projects. It is designed to provide an all-in-one platform for user research, allowing teams to manage all aspects of their projects in one place.

Key Use Cases

Document Management: With the Docs feature, teams can easily manage and organize all their project-related documents in one place. This eliminates the need to store documents in different locations or platforms, making it easier to locate and access important information.

Knowledge Sharing: The Docs feature allows teams to share knowledge and best practices within the team. For instance, a team member can create a document to share their learnings from a user research project, making it accessible to other team members for future reference. This promotes knowledge sharing and encourages collaboration.
