Ah - interesting. I'm curious to know how well the core apps stack up from the kids' perspectives. I watch my kids collaborating on slide decks with other kids and am amazed at what they come up with. My understanding is that the Office apps aren't as good for online collaboration, but perhaps the Education ones are more optimised for that?
- zapzupnz 8y agoThe online collab's fairly solid. The education edition is the same as the regular one, it's just a question of what features come with the licence. The education licence is actually pretty darn good, it has pretty much everything except business analytics. Certainly more than the home licences.
- tracker1 8y agoCan't speak from a kid's perspective... but as an adult O365, and the related apps (MS Teams in particular) are leaps and bounds better than the Google options.
- amanzi 8y agoYeah, I use Office 365 extensively and have used Google Apps extensively in the past. Office 365 is definitely more suited to corporate-type work and I personally prefer Office 365, but I just feel like the Google Apps interface and features work better for kids. And the Google Apps realtime collaboration features still beat the Office 365 apps hand down.
