I wouldn't call docs and sheets good by any means; they're passable at most, with tons of missing features.
- x0x0 7y agoNo doubt they're an ok word processor and a mediocre spreadsheet. That's not what they are though. They're really good group collaboration on docs, particularly content, and collaborative lists with owner assignment. We do a huge amount of editing / signoff / planning / workbacks / etc in them.

- esprehn 7y agoDocs and Sheets were entirely rewritten in house many years after the acquisition. They don't work at all like the original products.
