PCWorld: Can Microsoft Office 2010 Overcome The Google Effect?

Even large organizations are moving to cloud-based products such as Google Apps. Microsoft Office 2010, due out next month, will add new features, but will also try to move Office into the cloud in order to compete.


“Next month, Microsoft Corp. will release Office 2010 into an IT world that Google Inc. has been reshaping as use of its Google Apps services has spread to organizations like the Los Angeles city government and Genentech Inc.

With its release of Office 2010 on May 12, Microsoft will complete an effort to move its extensive portfolio of applications to the cloud, offering its business and government customers a new way to deliver services to users.”
