| Capability Summary | In the WPS cloud document list, you can right-click a file and open a File Information panel to review the file name, document tags, sharing settings, version history, owner, modified time, created time, file size, and file type. | Microsoft 365 lets users view and edit document properties such as title, author, subject, keywords, and other metadata, including automatically updated file properties and statistics. | Google Drive lets users open a details panel to see who owns and has access to a file, and Google Docs also provides version history and last edit information. | Notion database properties can store tags, dates, files, created time, created by, last edited time, and last edited by for structured page records. | Adobe Acrobat provides document properties and metadata for PDF files to support identification, management, and search. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the entry is available directly from the cloud document list right-click menu. Distinct: one side panel combines sharing settings, version history, and basic file details for cloud document review. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses more on editable document metadata and file properties inside Office apps, with less emphasis on a cloud file list panel that combines sharing and version details in one place. | Compared with WPS: Google provides sharing details and version history, but the related information is split between Drive and the document interface. | Compared with WPS: Notion is designed for database-style page management rather than a dedicated cloud file information panel in a document list. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF properties and metadata rather than cloud document list details for collaborative office files. |
