I just joined a new organization, and there is so much exchange of documents between Stakeholders before the same document is approved.. I end up having 1 document saved multiple times. I just want a tool where everyone in the team can access the same document and make necessary changes and we are able to track the changes, accept or decline and finalize.
If you have SharePoint/Teams, this is easily accomplished. You have a shared repository, you can control access to it, if needed, and you can create approval workflows. There are other software packages designed for this, that might do it better, but they cost more. Our marketing team uses InMotion, but I don't think it's cheap. Saving Changes...
Googledocs is another commonly-used option. Not a fan of it personally, but I know Twitter use it. At work, I use MS Teams so we can all edit a document in the same location. Saving Changes...

For me, the best bet is to use Atlassian Confluence that helps maintain versions of a page created, track who made what changes, etc. Other advantages include sharing a page with stakeholders, organizing your projects as spaces, embedding a variety of media, etc.
With the help of Atlassian Marketplace app(s), you can also give it the power of approvals, workflows, etc. This also seamlessly integrates with Jira, the popular issue tracking application from Atlassian.

I agree. Not only can you do everything Rama has outlined above, you can also comment on documents and pages with notifications that allow for collaboration.

SharePoint is a great option esp if you need to apply records management policies. However, a tool within your task management tool like Confluence from JIRA can be a good light-weight option. Saving Changes...
