Ohhh What it is Google the king of search engine has made Google docs a bunch of errors not much features , not having some basic functionalities and Google is saying that it will beat Microsoft office suit.. i have found some great things about Google docs that give a fair amount of idea to consumers and organizations have to wait some before using the Google Docs.
When ever You share any document or save any document it saved on the Google server. Organizations don’t want to share or store their critical files to other servers.Google docs does not have any local server or organizational version.
When you try to export documents, presentation or spreadsheet you open up in a new windows moral of the story Google docs does not support the export
Import any presentation using Google docs it will convert all your formatting, fonts, text and everything moral of the story use loose your presentations complete formatting.
Most important thing that i found missing in Google Docs is run over the Internet and if some don’t have Internet connection how that person will make documents and presentations. Sharing is not only mean by online sharing.
Google docs completely depend on the internet speed and Internet connection. by any means Internet connection is down then your all office work is down
Most of the time we think Google docs is good for us or Microsoft office. I have tried to find out the some facts about the Google docs and Microsoft office.
Google docs don’t have much to do with the image editing as compare to Microsoft office. You can’t paste image using the CTRL+C key and after inserting the image in Google docs it does not contain the original aspect ratio of the image. In Microsoft editing of image is very easy and there are a lot of functionality is also there for picture editing like you can crop the image.
Google docs don’t have much support for the table editing. You can insert the table but you can’t resize the table even you can’t delete the single column but in Microsoft office there is lot of functionality is there for table editing.
Google docs don’t have the complex data and charting functionality that are present in Microsoft Excel. Google docs are also missing the presentation capabilities that are present in Microsoft power point.
Google talks about Google docs are available on blackberry devices but Microsoft office documents are already pretty compatible with Blackberry and other mobile devices.
Microsoft office suite cost around $120 for three computers so for one computer it cost around $40. Now Microsoft releases its new office suit every three so the cost per year is around $14.Now Google docs and its application yearly subscription for a single employee is cost you around $50.
Only place Google docs is leading Microsoft office that their collaboration and sharing in that field Microsoft also introduced its Microsoft office live Workspace. It’s a complete hype that is created by Internet companies that all the products that are made by Microsoft are not good and they are stealing your money.
