Google Docs

For my film series project in the city I live in, I had to keep a record of the movies we screened and the ones we would present at the complex. It was a massive list, and I even had to separate them in colors (the one I subtitled and the ones I didn't have the translation yet), weeks, days, months (because every month was a different movie theme) and even the times we would repeat them. Google Docs was able to do all of that, for free, with an Autosave option that literally saves every thing you write or correct, in a matter of seconds,  you can make a lot of tabs, text docs, slides presentations, and it even gives you the option to open a whole white board and draw on it. Collaboration with partners it's really easy with the Docs free suite, you can edit anything and the other user will see the changes almost instantly. And the best thing about it, it's that you only need a Google account, (everybody has one!).

Page numbering, organizing and formatting can be faster on other office suites, Docs presents a few number of issues on it. Also, there is no password protection for documents, I would really like to use that.

Simply the best thing about Google Docs is the realtime version controlled collaborative writing features. If you are jointly writing a document as a team, this works so much better than typical dogged workflows of sharing docx files with tracked changes by email.

The material design interface is familiar and enjoyable if you like Google products. It is rapidly becoming a UI standard which means the barrier to entry is low.

Availability of apps for many mobile and tablet platforms is welcome, although they do not necessarily work as well as the web version. This is a difficult thing to get right, and GDocs is certainly ahead of Word mobile.

Really nice base styles and encouragement of good authorship practice promoting the use of styles rather than the common practice of changing the font size in Word.

Really great handling of fonts from the Google font library

Nice integration with Sheets for the inclusion of data in reports

Scripting and templating is light years behind Microsoft Word

Mail merge (no need to say more, where is it?)

Handling of footnotes and references

More control over typography would be nice, especially when it comes to things like tables and bulleted lists

Tables are very primitively implemented

Easy to use, no need to download can access online from anywhere, easy to share with other colleagues.No hang or crash issue, it automatically saves.

There is no major issue or least thing as per my experience, but yes its a online internet or connectivity can affect auto save
