I have used Google Documents in the past for group projects and have mixed feelings about it. We had some trouble with putting data tables into a text document. They would be fine and then suddenly we would log in and the formatting would be all messed up. I have also noticed that if too many people are trying to work on a document at the same time, sometimes the changes are not all saved and the program can easily freeze. Crazy stuff does and has happened. However, I still love and use Google Documents. It is really intuitive and easy to use and I will continue to use it. Once again, well done Google.
I hadn't used Zoho before today. It seems that Zoho offers more advanced options and might be more reliable than Google. However, I really don't have enough experience with it to say it is in fact better. Has anyone ever had problems with it freezing or refusing to save data? This sort of thing always makes me kind of nervous. I didn't really have to sign up for a Zoho account because it just accepted my Gmail address, which is nice.
After this, I would have to say Zoho is easier to use and has more interesting features. It seems like it might also have fewer issues than Google. However, I am kind of stuck on Google for the time being, my stuff is already there and that's what my collaborators always use anyway, but a girl can change. I'll probably give Zoho more thought.
