Additional notes:
Ease of Use: Google Workspace is generally praised for its simple, intuitive interface that integrates
seamlessly with other Google services, making it user-friendly for teams focused on real-time
collaboration. Microsoft 365 offers a feature-rich experience, though its complexity can be
challenging for new users but beneficial for those who need advanced functionality

Security and Compliance: Both Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 meet high security and
compliance standards. Google emphasizes strong encryption and controls, while Microsoft offers
extensive tools for threat protection and data loss prevention, appealing to enterprises requiring strict
security measures

Limitations: Google’s suite is ideal for basic to moderate document needs but may lack advanced
features available in Microsoft Word or Excel. In contrast, Microsoft 365’s applications, like Excel,
are industry standards for complex data analysis, though its interface may be overwhelming for users
who prioritize simplicity.
