5.0

Jeb B.: Hi. My name is Jeb. I'm the owner of a small business and I give Google Docs five out of five stars. So before I had Google Docs and we're talking many, many years ago, it was before everything was in the cloud. We had used Microsoft Word and just the ability to work in the cloud made such a huge difference for us. So we chose Google Docs because, I mean, for starters it was free and that was back in the day when you'd have to pay to use Microsoft Word and so we wanted to give Google Docs a try, again, because it was free. But also it was in the cloud and we didn't have to use space up on our computer to save documents. So getting started with Google Docs was super easy. It was the same as using any other similar Microsoft Word style program. It just jumped in with both feet and it was a piece of cake. So just jump in with both feet for Google Docs. It's super simple to use. Anyone who can use a computer in this day and age can use Google Docs. It's a no-brainer.
