I don't agree to the post at all

I agree to some of these however, the productivity that you attain is far more superior to formatting issues that the author described. The collaboration and sharing is the key and this increases the productivity by miles. There is no point having unshared document for just one employee viewing pleasure with 100 options for formatting a table or having 100 different fonts to choose from that doesn't convey any special meaning or idea. I guess google focusses on functionality and usability more than visual eccentricity of microsoft fans. I guess the author misses the point completely and i guess belongs to old school of thought :)

A Waste of Time

I gave this app. suite a good workout when it was originally released as a 'single-user' version. I fully agree with all of the comments made by Simon Jones in relation to personal access to your 'own' data. Once the connection to the Server is lost or when Google's server is down then you are 'stuffed' as we say here in AUS. Google's Ts&Cs for 'data ownership' are ridiculous and I cannot imagine any corporation's Legal Team approving its use in their operation. It's like a lot of things Google try - a good idea in the concept stage but simply unusable when it comes to a real 'production' environment. In the end, would your company like a 3rd party owning all your data - no matter how 'nice' they claim to be.
