    Google Docs is fast becoming the standard office suite in a lot of organizations.

      Maybe for newer organisations.

      But not for large oranisations. And when some jobs depend on creating the shiniest powerpoint presentation in the world, MS Office is unlikely to go away for now.

        Not even Office anymore, theyve got multiple levels of ERP systems linked in a with Azure resources for doing lots of core business functionality and automation which is becoming more and more a requirement, i.e. if your business can’t send/receive EDI you can’t sell to most major stores like Walmart/Kroger/etc.

        What would you describe as large?

        The company I work for is a multinational at this point and exclusively uses Google for Mail/Docs. We have I think 600 stores now across 12 countries.

        Google’s presentation software is on par, if not better than Office, especially for embedded YouTube/videos for demos.

        MS used to have a large moat on office suite functionality. But Gdocs has largely closed the gap.
