Google Docs Review
My overall experience with google docs is amazing. I use google docs to collaborate on any project I am working on. Its easy to use and reliable. All of the features you need to do your basic tasks are there. There is also a chat function available to communicate through. Everything with this program wad thought out very well. Nothing but good experiences with google docs.
Free and Intuitive documentation tool
My overall experience with Google Docs has been satisfactory because I am able to record tagging, reporting and campaign re-targeting instructions with no additional cost investment needed to buy a software. So, its ROI is high, as long as the user is familiar with using Google suite of office tools such as Google Drive and Gmail in conjunction with Google Docs. And, is comfortable with collaborating on same project with multiple members using commenting and file sharing features. Other tools like Microsoft Word are costly.
My Favorite Feature from Google
Hands down one of the best document software for editing and creating files. Easy to convert to other document formats like pdf and docx. Easy to use and Free with a Google Account. It has all the basic features you need and some extras. There are templates available with lots of useful information that you can use for your business. Files are easily accessible in the cloud or you can download them to your choice of storage. I love that the History feature stores all the changes made and the dates, so I don't have to keep track. I love the HELP feature which gives some training and Updates, and allows me to report any issues.
Highly compatible and accessible Document Generating Platform
Personally I have utilized Google Docs in a manner that has helped me sustain and progress many businesses that has proven to me that Google is capable of making a superior document platform. Its wide range of applications, storage and file compatibility has made it easy for me to craft beautiful and effective documents for the workplace. My colleagues can edit documents without having to email the changes to me because we already have access to the file via Google's servers such in a manner that it has increased our capabilities and workplace enjoyment substantially

Pros
Google Docs has all the features of Microsoft Word but costs nothing. Available to anyone with a Google account, Google Docs allows you to access your document from any device without having to carry around a flash drive. You can make adjustments to your paper from your phone or start a paper at a local library then finish it from your home computer with no extra effort. Google Docs saves changes automatically, so you will never lose your work if you computer crashes or dies. The ability to share documents with other Google accounts is perfect for team projects. Teammates can edit or create simultaneously and can see other edits in real time . Google Docs is now the only system I use for documents.
Cons
None. Every time I have recommended this software to a coworker or friend, they have been surprised by how many features there are and how easy it is to use.

All of the features you need to do your basic tasks are there. There is also a chat function available to communicate through. Everything with this program wad thought out very well. Nothing but good experiences with google docs.
Pros
What like most about google docs is how easy it is to collaborate on a document. I can't think of one job I've had where I did not use this product in some way, shape or form. One feature I love, is that as others enter the document, their icon will popup on the screen. As they leave, the icon leaves. It is just a basic version of the full microsoft office suite with all the bells and whistles. I like that it is not overcomplicated and what you see is what you get. Another thing I love most is the fact that it is free for everyone to use and there is never any pressure to buy. Its just a free resource that makes collaborative efforts really easy.
Cons
One thing I dislike most about this software is the fact that you have to have a google account to use it. That is one of the only issues that occurs when using this product because sometimes people don't have a google account and don't want to have one just for the sake of collaborating on a document. Another thing that could be better is the lack of live updates and changes on the document while people are in the document. I know that you can look through the revision history but without having to take that extra step sometimes, it makes things more convenient. You can be working on something together and the person can make a change without the other even knowing. Live updates somewhere on the document would be a great addition.

And, is comfortable with collaborating on same project with multiple members using commenting and file sharing features. Other tools like Microsoft Word are costly.
Pros
I use Google Docs to document my marketing campaign strategy. So, I can leverage it again, when needed in the future. Example: I came up with a re-targeting campaign strategy using custom audience built in Google Analytics and sent to Salesforce for campaign execution. I documented all the steps of this new strategy using Google Docs which helped me apply the same re-targeting process to other marketing campaigns. I also utilize Google Docs to keep a record of all my tagging and reporting strategies so I can easily apply them to new KPIs or measurement plans. In summary, Google Docs has helped me save campaign optimization instructions for future reference so I am more efficiently repeating process which worked before. Another pro about Google Docs: it automatically saves content as I type, in the cloud. So, there is no risk of losing text or images, if my laptop is frozen or shut down without my control.
Cons
Google Docs doesn't save images from Gmail. For example, if I typed a long email which has a bunch of text and images. And, I want to save that email in Google Docs, it will save the text but not the images. So, I have to save the images in my local drive first and then upload them to Google Docs. Or, take a screenshot of images from the original source and then paste them in Google Docs. Also, Google Docs won't work that efficiently to save content if internet signal is down or if there is no Google account available.

Pros
I use this software at work and home. Best part it's free with my personal account and it's available with my business account as a part of G-suite, now called Google Workplace. I used it for years from it just got released. Font options are decent styles to choose from. Very easy to use and easy to self-learn. I love that you can easily insert links from the web, the history tab automatically saves all my changes so if I need to make a change, it's all there. It autosaves so that's a plus and no more losing data. And it allows me to work offline and saves it to the cloud automatically the moment I connect to the internet. I collaborate with my business partner in the same document simultaneously. I love that feature because we can brainstorm together and the features show exactly where our mouse is at all times so we are not tripping over each others' words. We can leave comments for each other, make suggestions- in suggestion mode where it doesn't alter the data but instead suggest to make an edit to the owner. Best of all, you can share the document with others and add restrictions without having to send as an attachment. This flexibility also allows you to remove access as well, so that's a win-win. The general alignment are included Left, right, center and so on, spell and grammar check, inserting images & Gifs, and they just added a compare document feature which allows me to compare two documents while I work which is perfect for A-B Testing.
Cons
Adjusting the page layout and changing the page color in "page set up" was not easy to find
P.S You go to File- then select Page set UP
Format is Not as common or accepted by most software as other document formats like pdf and docx

Pros
Google Docs has served me in many manners that allows for in browser document editing that creates files for Google users to edit, download and share with eachother. It being stored in the cloud has a variety of benefits that make it's longevity consistent for as long as you have a Google Account. Multiple users can share and access said documents and edit them simultaneously, showing live updates across everyones accounts which makes collaboration much more seamless.
Cons
Not as feature rich as a program like Microsoft Word, however it has specific features that in some ways make it better than Word itself.
