Google Docs is a very solid online office suite. Google Docs is good for uncomplicated documents and worksheets. It is especially useful when a group of people need to make changes in a document. The real time collaborative opportunity is a plus. Collaborators can chat on the Goggle Doc site as they work on the document. On the spreadsheet, a block of highlighted color and name pops up when another person is making a change at that exact moment. It has the built-in security and automatic file saving. Google Docs works fast unless many documents are open. And of course, the price is right- Free.
Google Docs features cannot match the desktop office suites. It just did not have the depth of desktop versions. It has a minimalist look and feel. Also, one major drawback is the lack of offline access for documents.
Google Docs has some kinks to work out. But as we all know, Google will hear us and fix the issues. Google knows what the consumer wants before the consumer knows what they want. Someday it may knock MS Office off its throne.
