Save Money forget Microsoft and use Google’s Free Documents
If you are not a power user of Word, Excel or Powerpoint, you’ll never miss them when you change to Google Apps Documents. Google offers online applications for Word, Spreadsheets and Presentations. These software tools are hosted online and store all your documents online on Google serviers. Best part is Google Documents are Free!
Free Word
Free Spreadsheets
Free Presentations
I use Google Apps Documents in by consulting business (www.gAdviser.com) to share and communicate information with my customers, some of which is helping with Google Apps Setup. For example we use spreadsheets to collaboratively track page analysis and keyword link building for the SEO Consulting work I do with my clients. I quickly and easily send documents as attachments to an email…. and much more.
Google stores all your documents online for free, so you can access them from anywhere in the world and from any kind of computer and operating system. No need to worry about hard drive crashes or carrying around a jump drive with your data, it’s always available and back up by Google.

Google Documents Online Collaboration
What you give up in power features you make up for in collaboration. Two, three… or even more people can all work on the same document at the same time from anywhere in the world. No more sending files around where each file is independently modified than someone compiles the changes into a new master documents.
The owner of a document decides who their co-owners will be and who will have read or write access to the documents. Google also keeps track of the changes through an automatic versioning system so you can see who changed what when and revert back to the old document if you prefer.
Free Upgrades to Google Documents
The best small business advice I can give is to leverage this free software and upgrades. No more paying software companies a $100 for every upgrade. I’ve been using Google Documents for a couple of years and see weekly feature additions and upgrades.
