I don’t get it.
Oh, it is just a pretty terrible set of tools if you need to do anything that is semi professional (build a complex spreadsheet or a presentation you can show in public, for example).
Uh what do you mean by “complex” here? That’s what apps script is for. I have a spreadsheet that processes my gmail inbox using regular expressions. Try that in Excel.
I think it’s just making fun of how absolutely dogshit google productivity apps are.
Compared to Microsoft, they’re… both bad.
Compared to what? We use some of the Google stuff (mail, calendar, meet and Google office) and they do the job.
For enterprise environments really nothing compares to MS. The whole suite of power apps shoots productivity through the roof. Power query, power automate, power apps, BI, etc. With Python integration I can do even more, I can automate most things and set up automations for non savvy peers.
By enterprise I just mean any business that deals with a lot of data, I work for a company with 15 people and we’d need probably 5 more if we were running on Google. 😂😂
I have the exact opposite experience, honestly, running the IT of a 120 employee company. MS is too bloated with legacy systems, while I find Google very purposeful engineered to get the job done. I very much believe it’s more of a habit thing than anything else. Would need 5 more people to run everything on MS compared to Google.
I do concede that sometimes it feels like MS began doing their stuff in the 90s, while Google began with theirs in the early 10s; some basic functionality Google haven’t gotten around to yet.
