Do you use G-Suite or O365 alongside it? I don't see significant improvement over a Google Doc.

- dasil003 9y agoYes, I use all three. Paper's focus on content vs formatting make Paper feel more elegant and more "meaty" for product development/engineering purposes. Admittedly it's a tough sell over Google Docs for much the same reason that Google Docs was a tough sell of O365 a few years ago—it just doesn't have the functionality to fully replace it. That said, Paper has an elegance about it as a product that reminds me of Facebook vs MySpace ca. 2006, or Slack vs HipChat ca. 2014, where it serves a modern use case in a fundamentally better way, less of a local maximum if you will.

- inthewoods 9y agoAgreed on tough sell - I just don't see enough value in Paper to make it worth it. Same is true for Quip by the way.
