What Litera Compare is
Litera Compare helps users review document revisions across authors and file formats. It can compare complete documents or selected snippets, including text, code, images, tables, charts, and comments. Its analysis groups changes by type and quantity, giving users options to filter, modify, or flag results. Users can save redlines, merge revisions, or create a new document that keeps the original formatting, then print or email it. Litera Compare is available for Google Workspace, where comparisons can be launched from Docs, Drive, or Litera’s web application. Litera also offers it for Microsoft 365 using the same comparison engine as its Google Workspace offering. The cloud-based Compare Office 365 app is described as device-agnostic and can compare, clean, and convert documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Compare Desktop runs on Windows; Mac or Linux use requires a Windows virtual machine or dual boot. Desktop integrations include NetDocuments, iManage, OpenText eDOCS, and Worldox. Online purchases are limited to 10 seats, and the Desktop license is a one-year subscription.
