Pros / Cons
  • The ability to work from any device ,share documents instantly and see real time updates has made both personal and work projects much more efficient. While there are occasional limitations with formatting and performance on slow internet, the convenience and flexibility outweigh the the drawbacks.
  • The only down side I see on google docs is that when I open other documents originated in Microsoft or apple documents they tend to lose their format like the spaces, headers, etc. But nothing that can be fixed quickly.

  • I appreciate the ability to combine all my email accounts into one location, as well as most of the software I use, which streamlines both my workday and my personal time online.
  • They also still haven't fixed the issue with Google Docs when using an M series Mac although I think this may be a Google issue that they have no control over.
