Google Workspace Essentials vs. WordPerfect Office

I will state this with 2 basic examples, When I require documentation to be edited by many editors then Google workspace is the way to go. It provides the best synching capabilities and also sharing capabilities. In case of meeting conduction through google meet a notes section would be awesome for personal notes and the capability to record the meetings would also help a ton to improve the productivity of all users

If you are negotiating a document, using WordPerfect can be a problem since so few people still use it and while it is easy to save a .wpd document as a .doc, the reverse creates all sorts of formatting mayhem. However, WordPerfect has great page numbering options and easy macro/template creation.

• Google Docs & Google Slides are essential to our company as we are remote. Multiple people can work on the documents at one time.
• Easy to share and store files in Google Drive.
• Google Calendar is amazing, it integrates seamlessly with other Google products and it's our company's primary calendar tool.

• WordPerfect Office makes merging documents very simple and I can do more elaborate merges easily.
• WordPerfect Office's reveal codes is a major plus! I have used it so many times to find extra coding in a document that is creating problems.

• Record option to be there in Google meet
• ability to share documents outside google accounts need to be looked at
• Improvement in conversion to MS office based documents and converting those documents to googles format needs a little work.
• Will be good to have a pdf to word converter and vice versa

• Quattro Pro, wholly adequate, but beginning to lag Excel
• No integrated eMail program.

Now that our department has used G Suite Essentials for close to 2 years, I can't imagine not using it. It has proven to be a very practical tool for sharing files / folders on a shared drive. It also makes it easy to modify and update content. It is user friendly and the interface is simple.

We are married to it for life.

Google Workspace is very easy to use. Even the advanced features are also rendered with an intuitive user interface. Opting into new features is easy, with a clear indication of whether they cost extra or free. Communications about new features as well as security threats are easy to understand and follow up on.

Corel Support is pretty solid providing timely reactions due to issues as well as the forums page where users can deposit questions or ideas for others to help out.

Google Workspace Essentials is more robust than Dropbox with the other features that are available. Google Workspace Essentials is very comparable to Microsoft 365, and we ultimately went with Google because at the time, it was free/priced better than MS, and now we have lots of legacy files already stored on Google servers, so a switch would be too time-consuming. We went with Google Workspace Essentials over OpenOffice because of the email features of using Google.

OpenOffice is great because it is free. For people on a budget you can't beat it. No question that WordPerfect is the superior and more powerful product, but not an option for everyone. Oddly, OpenOffice seems more capable at working with Microsoft Office format than WordPerfect.

• Our fundraising and development efforts nearly doubled 2020-2022, largely in part to the organizational tools within Google Workspace Essentials.

• It was integral to our brand overhaul.

• Dealing with outside clients that may not have WordPerfect.

• Some of the software needs to be updated..
