If someone's needs are so basic that the crappy Google docs apps can meet them, then they could've been just as happy with LibreOffice. Google docs is not remotely competitive with MS office.


I haven't needed Microsoft Office in 15 years.

I've built and worked at multiple companies that are entirely in the Google Workspace ecosystem.

If there's some "missing feature", I haven't found it or needed it.


you'd be surprised how many users are covered by basic needs.


For docs yes, but spreadsheets power users are everywhere in every organization in the world. Sure they are not the majority of employees, but they are often very high up in the management chain and you will only pry them out of MS Excel from their cold dead hands.

I am not a power user of excel in any way and even I can see that google sheets doesn't match it in features and performance.
