As I mentioned previously, you can use SharePoint but you just need to make sure that everyone in the Shared Review has access to the workspace.
Also, I do believe they’re looking at other options like OneDrive to support Office 365.
Thanks,
Lori

7, 2015-05-07 07, 2015Thanks a lot, I was under impression that Office 365 is a lot like a publicly hosted SharePoint, and as such must be usable for shared reviews… Many people are looking for acrobat.com alternatives for shared reviews, your post helps for intracompany exchange, let me also share a link to Rick Borstein’s post re external reviews: http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2014/05/hosting-a-shared-review-an-alternative-to-acrobat-com/. If you’re in touch with PM, please advocate the need for the Adobe-hosted option. It is definitely possible using the Document Cloud infrastructure, I hope it makes it into the list of priorities…

Shared reviews can be set up using a network folder, a Microsoft SharePoint workspace (Windows only), or a web server folder. The PDF resides and one or more individuals can read and reply to each other’s comments.
On the other hand, you can upload and store PDF files in Office 365 and comment on them but multiple people cannot reply and interactively collaborate (see each other’s comments).
Thanks,
Lori

1, 2015-05-05 05, 2015Hi Lori, can you create a similar walkthrough for Office 365 or other compatible public services, or explain the difference between setting up shared reviews on SharePoint vs. Office 365?

Unfortunately, this feature is tied to the initiator. When someone starts a shared review they’ll be able to change the deadline in Tracker. The only way to get around this, would be to use the same login was used to access the computer where the shared review was initiated.
Thanks,
Lori

Sorry to bother you again.
