It\u2019s not rocket science. $0 is infinitely better than any sum of money you could think of. The ability to share documents via the cloud makes the whole prospect even more attractive. But is it worth it to move onto Google Docs and abandon Office forever? Or are you better off still working with software that\u2019s been around for ages? Let\u2019s find out!<\/p>\n<p>Only a few years ago, the thought of making a web-based word processor was unthinkable. Google Docs remedied the situation with its very existence. Everything about it had the sweet aroma of innovation. Now, more people are starting to look at the prospect of using this software for their own purposes, and for the ability to share their work across the Web to people halfway around the globe without sending an attachment. Today, a document can be transferred via email with a simple link thanks to Google Docs.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the arguments for using Google Docs as opposed to Microsoft Word:<\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>It\u2019s portable, meaning you don\u2019t have to install any software and everything saves instantly through a collaborative environment.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>More than one person can work on the document at the same time, making teamwork immensely more productive.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>You get most of the functionality of Microsoft Word within this compact application.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>It\u2019s unbelievably easy to comment on a piece of text and suggest edits.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>Google Docs is fun to use!<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>Nowhere on the Internet can you actually chat live on the same window you\u2019re writing a document in.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>You get an ample amount of storage that dwarfs the Gutenberg Bible.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>You can set permissions for people when sharing a document, allowing you to have full control over who can edit, comment, and view the document. You can also let anyone with the link view, edit, or comment. If you\u2019re looking to make a public document that everyone can edit, you can also make it publicly editable. The access control is useful for corporate environments.<\/li>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<li><strong>\u2022<\/strong>And, best of all, Google Docs saves your documents in real-time, as you write them.<\/li>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/microsoft-word-vs-google-docs\/2012\/12\/07\" target=\"_blank\">Article Continued Here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This excerpt is shared with permission from
