Uuuh says who? I think they dominate because they are in fact better for business for one reason or another.

- iknowstuff 1y agoCool but GCP or AWS is overall running circles around OVHCloud. GSuite and O365 are better for businesses than uhhh… what is the european equivalent even? Tutanota and protonmail + libreoffice?
- SllX 1y agoPeople aren't using Google Drive for the Drive per se or the crappy online file system UI, they're there for the apps: Docs & Sheets are the killer apps: good enough as a word processor & spreadsheet combo for any basic tasks, real-time collaboration that is still first-class and maybe unmatched (or at least the closest matches I can think of are still American vendors), and plenty of people are educated in their use, especially anybody who went to school any time after 2008. Also you know, Gmail: still a great webmail service, and part of Google Workspace too.
