What it is

Litera Compare helps users compare document revisions across authors and file formats. Comparisons can cover complete documents or selected snippets, including text, code, images, tables, charts, and comments. Results group changed elements by type and quantity so users can filter, modify, or flag them. Users can save redlines, make a merged version, or create a new document retaining the original formatting, then print or email it. Google Workspace users can start comparisons from Google Docs, Google Drive, or Litera’s web application. Litera also offers Compare for Microsoft 365 with the same comparison engine. The cloud-based Compare Office 365 app compares, cleans, and converts documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Compare Desktop runs on Windows; Mac and Linux require a Windows virtual machine or dual boot. Desktop integrations include NetDocuments, iManage, OpenText eDOCS, and Worldox. The Desktop license is a one-year subscription, and online purchases are limited to 10 seats.
