Do you guys prefer using Office 365 or Google Drive for your office needs? I've been playing around with both and can't make up my mind one way or another so I figured I'd ask for outside opinion.

I only use Google Drive (Docs, Spreadsheets mostly) now because it just works for me and all my stuff is saved online so I can access it easily

Office 365 is completely worth it since you will always have the latest version and on 5 devices.

If you're just needing something personally to make your own resume or something Google Doc's is fine.  But if you will be calibrating with anyone, just get office.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

Office 365 ProPlus because MSDN. Only ever use it for Outlook though. Also I suggest chagng the names to Microsoft Office and Google Docs, as not everybody has a 365 subscription. Some have retail 2013, some have an older version, some just pirate it.

I've used just Office 2013 too, I wasn't really curious about that. More so the functionality of 365 vs. Google.

 

Thanks guys, looks like it's pretty much a toss up, as I expected. I really like the idea of always having the latest office version on all my machines and mobile, but the power of Google services for free is also very persuasive. Having the dedicated desktop applications with Office is also a lot nicer than having to use Chrome offline with Docs as well.

 

I think I'll probably pony up and go with Office 365.
