Lifehacker published an informative article comparing and contrasting the feature sets of Google Docs and Microsoft’s Office Web Apps.
I’ve been a dedicated Google Docs user for years now, and the fact that Microsoft’s Office Web Apps doesn’t offer any sort of collaboration features (which is Google Docs’ strongest feature!) means that I won’t be switching anytime soon.
I was impressed, however, by some of the features that Microsoft’s Web Office suite is rolling out with:
- 25 GB free cloud storage space (as opposed to Google’s 1GB free space)
- Ability to use all of the fonts installed on your computer (assuming you’re running Windows, of course)
- Full compatibility with existing Microsoft Office files (not much of a surprise but still a big deal for a lot of people)
