Furthermore, it is also easy, for example, just times a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file to send, and there are no compatibility problems with the recipient due to the high penetration rate. But the competition does not sleep well, and no matter how good a product is, sooner or later there are alternatives like Open Office which are also free.

Also Google has an alternative to Microsoft Office in the portfolio for a long time which can now be used without the detour via the web browser on the desktop.
