      Problem Definition

      If more than one user is editing the same document in Companion App, there is no warning, and the last person to save the document will overwrite any other changes made by previous users.

      Suggested Solution

      Implement concurrent editing or warn when another user is editing the document to prevent overwrites.

      Why this is important

      Currently, a user could lose a lot of work they've done if they are unaware that another user is editing.

      Workaround 

      No current workaround.

            This is is pretty basic stuff. If we we sharing the file on a drive we would get better management. Confluence is proving itself to be a very substandard document sharing system and one of the worst I have ever encountered. I hope this feedback helps.
