<p id="par_id150820161816031425" class="paragraph" dir="auto">LibreOffice can open and save files stored on remote servers. Keeping files on remote servers allows to work with the documents using different computers. For example, you can work on a document in the office during the day and edit it at home for last-minute changes. Storing files on a remote server also protects them from computer loss or hard disk failure. Some servers are also able to check in and check out files, thus controlling their usage and access.</p>
<p id="par_id150820161816033566" class="paragraph" dir="auto">LibreOffice supports many document servers that use well known network protocols such as FTP, WebDAV, Windows share, and SSH. It also supports popular services like Google Drive as well as commercial and open source servers that implement the OASIS CMIS standard.</p>
