Disclaimer: I don’t use any google services myself.
Because it is free, guaranteed to work as long as they keep it running and marketed well.
Plus since they were early into the game of tech online they have many services that all link together.
There aren’t many that will offer most users so much value for ‘free’.
Most alternatives will have some cost if you want as much space as google provides, either the same as google (user data) or monetary (which I semi agree with, hosting isn’t free and I’d rather pay money than with data). However, not everyone is in a position to pay with money and so data is usually what they pay with.
We use Google Forms and Sheets at work, precisely because easy for a bunch of us to access, and our boss is tight as fuck, so it being free is a massive draw.
I keep looking to other ways to perform the few functions we use, but ultimately I lack the knowledge and resources to roll my own.
Yeah, I lack the knowledge and reaources to roll my own too.
So I mostly rely on cryptpad for sharing/collaborating on different document types myself. I don’t think it is necessarily free for businesses, but I am unsure.
