USES OF MICROSOFT WORDS AND GOOGLE DOCS
Microsoft Words and Google Docs are the most commonly used software for people to
complete their documents work on a computer. The common uses on Microsoft Words and
Google Docs are for students and workers to do assignments, reports etc. The other common
use for people is to do Curriculum Vitae. Both of the software provide various templates on
different resumes, projects, and letters. Therefore, these two softwares do have the similarity
uses.

*Template on Microsoft Words

*Template on Google Docs


FEATURES OF MICROSOFT
WORDS
However, these two softwares also
have some different features that
make them obvious. The main
features of Microsoft Words is its
functionality. Microsoft Words
provides more functions than
Google Docs on the menu bar and
format on the page. People will
have more choice and ways to
make their works stand out.

The second feature of Microsoft


Words is the function of mail
merge. This function can be only found in Microsoft Word. Word can combine the information of
the table into mail or letter automatically once you have the information typed. The similar letters
in different detail or for different receivers can be merged at the same time. This function can
save your time and produce mass mailing simply, especially compared to the process of
preparing individual letters or envelopes to many people.

FEATURES OF GOOGLE DOCS


Google Docs does not have as
much functionality as Microsoft
Words. It seems like the old
version of Microsoft Words but it
is more convenient. In Google
Docs, it will save the documents
automatically into Google Drive,
so there is no worry on forgetting
to save documents or close the
page accidentally. In addition,
you will be able to open your
document on any different device
if you have your google account
details to login to Google.

Furthermore, one of the features of Google Docs that attract people is the Voice Typing
function. This function allows you to type your documents with your voice once you have your
microphone turned on. The documents will automatically turn your voice into words.
In conclusion, the main uses of both Microsoft Words and Google Docs are assisting people to
complete their documents work on the desktop or laptop device, but the functions in Microsoft
Words are more than Google Docs. In contrast, Google Docs provides automatic saving so
people would not have to worry about documents saving problems. The largest difference
between them is that Microsoft Words does not request for internet connection, this means that
we can do this offline, however Google Docs will request for internet connection to work.
