Google Docs Editors is a web-based productivity office suite offered by Google within its Google Drive service. The suite includes Google Docs (word processor), Google Sheets (spreadsheet), Google Slides (presentation software), Google Drawings (vector drawing program), Google Forms (online forms, quizzes and surveys), Google Sites (graphical website editor), and Google Keep (note-taking application). It used to also include Google Fusion Tables until it was discontinued in 2019.

The Google Docs Editors suite is available freely for users with personal Google accounts: through a web application, a set of mobile apps for Android and iOS, and a desktop application for Google's ChromeOS.

Availability

The Google Docs Editors suite is available free of charge for users with personal Google accounts. It is also offered as part of Google's business-centered service, Google Workspace.

Competition

The suite mainly competes with Microsoft Office and iWork software suites. It pioneered real-time collaborative editing since its inception in 2006, while Microsoft Office only introduced it in 2013. The suite can open and write Microsoft Office file formats. The Google Docs Editors Suite is available for free to users with private Google accounts. It is also offered as part of Google's business-oriented Google Workspace service, which ran until October 2020 under the name G Suite, a monthly subscription service that unlocks additional features.
