![]() ![]() My favorite feature is the collaboration tool which allows you to edit documents and discuss them in real time with other users. ![]() Quip is a great collaboration tool that is something similar to Slack, Google Docs and Google Sheets all wrapped up into one. However it leaves some things to be desired in the looks and function department. Overall Quip is a good alternative to Slack & Google Apps. However the price and slow functionality when it comes to bigger documents/spreadsheets leaves much to be desired and as such, it may not be ideal for anyone but bigger organizations that want to cut off multiple communication channels and document tools. Over the 6 month period that I tested it, I found that while it was functional for the most part as a lot of things, it failed in key areas that we would need it to work including handling large spreadsheets, edit history and connectivity issues. I tested Quip as part of a team effort to find a collaborative tool that we could incorporate across the board. Quip's An Alternative to Google Docs and Slack It would be better if I could place an image whereever I wanted and size it however I liked instead of in its current state where I can only place it in specific quadrants in the content body. Currently, you cannot completely control the size or position. Better control over editing photos that have been pasted into a document in quip would also be better. It would be nice if in addition to having preset formatting options, we had control over being able to completely customize formatting. Finally, the fact that quip maintains a record of all changes, allowing you to go back to previous states is tremendously useful in case of mistakes etc. Able to export documents into their appropriate formats for local download if necessary. The preset formatting options makes life a lot easier when writing up larger documents as it makes documentation pleasant to look at. The UI feels incredibly smooth and responsive and just feels pleasant to use. and then collaborate on them with the team. The ability to easily create and share different types of files such as documents, presentations, spreadsheets etc. It's also fairly functional and I didn't feel like it was lacking any features that I needed. The sleek and responsive UI garners a much better feeling when using the product over others such as the Google suite. Using quip makes the process of writing and sharing documentation a lot more painless and enjoyable. Overall my experience has been very positive. A fantastic collaboration tool for medium to large sized teams
