Google Docs vs. MS Word

Even if you are used to working with MS Word, don’t worry. Google Docs is compatible with Microsoft Word. You can open, edit, and save Word documents using Google Docs. You can also save your Google Docs files as Word documents. To open a Word document in Google Docs, select “File” then “Open,” and choose the Word document you want to open.

Google Sheets vs. MS Excel

If you're looking for basic spreadsheet functions, Google Sheets works nicely. However, we know that if you need to upload, track, and analyse large sets of data, like in Financial management, Microsoft Excel might support it better.
