MVP

Google’s battle with Microsoft for dominance in cloud application suites continues. New developments, new applications, and even new names keep the pace up as Office 365 and G Suite go head-to-head for customer loyalties.

It's the PC v Mac debate and I've found that most comparisons are from personal experience/opinion. Great to see you've taken more of a feature-lead approach.

 

I've got a similar article pending publication that I'll share when it goes live.

 

I'd love to do an indepth product by product feature comparison (eg Docs v Word) but I just don't have the time.

@Sonia Cuff i know there is a comparisson chart for that but it is a oldie will try to look it up!

At the rate that things are changing, it could have been written last Monday and now be old :)

But i think the main difference is that google is not offline available. This is most often een key feature that the enterprise wants!

Google has a strange version of offline.

 

Gmail, Docs, Sheets and Slides can be used offline if you enable it, but it's restricted to the Google Chrome browser on that computer. So you can't transfer offline files to another computer with a file copy, or put them on a USB.

 

Google Drive also doesn't have selective file/folder sync - a big plus for the latest OneDrive sync tool.
