Google Docs vs. Office 365

#10
I've used Drive and G-Suite since high-school and it's been alright to me for the most part.
But there are just too many features that it lacks from regular Microsoft Office:
  • Header/Footer options
  • Can't add captions to Images without making a 'drawing'
  • Margins are finnicky, especially with images
  • Limited by Drive fonts and not system fonts
  • File exporting is finnicky, I've had it spit out empty PDF files, and the DocX format is proprietary enough that no one can properly replicate it except Microsoft themselves, although Google does admittedly come close.
  • And much, much more!

So I'm considering giving Office365 a serious shot. I know I have access with my school email and if that falls through, I'll just buy one for a dollar online somewhere (or make one myself)
If Office has proper exporting support, I'd switch over to it exclusively for my own writing and school work.
But of course since Drive is free, I'll still be using it for collaboration with students when I'm either writing for them or tutoring or whatever have you. The suggestion features are just so nice.
