Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Lets you open a File Information panel directly from the cloud document list and review the file name, tags, sharing settings, version history, and more file details in one place.	Microsoft 365 lets users view and edit document properties such as title, author, subject, keywords, and other metadata.	Google Docs and Drive let users open a details panel to see ownership and access, and version history shows edit time and earlier versions.	Notion pages can show updates, page history, and database properties such as created time, created by, last updated by, and last edited time.	Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF document properties and metadata, including document property and metadata views for PDF files.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS brings sharing settings, version history, and more file details together in one side panel from the cloud file list, which is convenient for quick checks before collaboration.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses more on document metadata fields, while sharing and version-related information may appear in separate areas.	Compared with WPS: Google provides access and version details, but file details and version history are handled through different paths.	Compared with WPS: Notion is centered on page and database tracking rather than a file information panel for a traditional cloud file list.	Compared with WPS: Adobe centers on PDF property and metadata management rather than a cloud document collaboration info panel.
