which is basically LibreOffice in the browser. Best of all, it is
free and open source (although to use it for free you need to set
it up your self, there is also the option to use their server in
which case it is $18 a year per user, still cheaper than google
suite)<br>

Folks
<br>
<br>
I need to switch our non-profit to either Google for non- profits
or Office 365. Both provide the functions we need. Google suite
has the advantage that 1/2 the staff have gmail and are familiar w
the platform. Also google forms are really helpful for our 2
program coordinators. Office 365 has the office Suite of programs
that we have always used and Word & Excel seem more robust and
easier to do mail merges & formatting.
<br>
So I have 3 questions that I'm looking for opinions on from
anyone who has switched people over to one format or the other.
<br>
1. Has digital transfer of accounts to either been especially hard
or especially easy?
<br>
<br>
2. Was using google drive or 1 drive difficult or confusing for
low tech-savvy users? We have 22 staff. Maybe 5 are very
comfortable with tech.
<br>
<br>
3. Any thoughts on the administration of either?
<br>
<br>
Only 5 staff reported a preference. 2 for Office 365, 2 for
Google, & one who says either except sharing a google doc is
cumbersome if the receiver doesn't have gmail.
<br>
<br>
Looking mostly for red flags or praise to help w the final choice.
<br>
<br>
Any input appreciated, thanks.
<br>
