Best Online Office Suite Software (2017)
Documents, spreadsheets & presentations created in the cloud
Installed office suite software for word processing and spreadsheets may be going the way of the typewriter.
Cloud-based document creation and management is readily available, updated automatically, and perfect for smaller businesses.
Office suites are more than just word processors, spreadsheets, and presentation software, and often come with file storage, email applications, chat and meeting software, graphic design and note taking.
The bigger players - Microsoft, Google, and Apple - dominate the online office suites category, but there are other options on the market and these are well worth considering by small businesses.
At present there are only a handful of pure online office suites available, but this is likely to change as Software-as-a-Service becomes increasingly mainstream.
