Microsoft has spent the past five years reminding people that web apps can’t possibly match the power of dedicated desktop software. Now it finds itself in the slightly awkward position of launching its own Office Web Apps, in a belated attempt to counter the threat of Google Docs and others.
On the face of it, the Microsoft and Google approaches seem similar. Both offer completely free access to online word processors, spreadsheets and presentation software from any web browser – in Microsoft’s case, via its SkyDrive storage service – and also to companies running SharePoint 2010 servers. Microsoft even goes the extra yard by throwing in the advanced note-taking abilities of OneNote.
Attempt to build a presentation from scratch using the PowerPoint Web App like https://play.google.com/...kzai10502.calculatorpro, for example, and you’ll have only a handful of fonts to work with; you can’t even change the background colour of slides. The only chance you’ll get to giving your presentation life is when you’re invited to pick a theme, just after naming your file.

Pros: I love how secure the platform is, the software is easy to navigate. I love the fact that it is accessable worldwide.
We utilize all that the product has to offer on a daily basis and are quite happy with the product. It helps us manage our business better and provides the tools necessary to communicate effectively.
Cons: Sometimes i get logged out and have trouble logging back in. This is very rare but can be confusing and upsetting as everything is on there.
Bottom Line: Microsoft has spent the past five years reminding people that web apps can’t possibly match the power of dedicated desktop software.
