Perspective Summary:

Although the Microsoft Office suite has become the de facto work environment for most knowledge workers, cloud-based document creation and management solutions by Google and Zoho now offer a viable alternative at a much lower price point that provides superior support for knowledge workers in a collaboration context.

Yet there are clear functional advantages on the desktop in terms of creating and managing well-made or polished documents. In this Strategic Perspective, we discuss the impact of the cloud on creating and managing office documents by contrasting desktop and cloud-based document creation, functionality, availability, sharing, timing and value.
