It basically comes down to whether your sales arm demands native Teams and subsequent MSFT stack. Anyone deploying major production in GCP/GKE tends to go full Technical Partner with GOOG, google docs included.

FWIW Docs isn't bad, and slides is... useable, but sheets is a poor excel alternative.

My experience for smaller companies is more like:

- if you have GMail, people(esp engineering) use docs and 1-n people have Excel on top

- if you are all in on MS, then of course no one will use GDocs

I find Docs and Slides are fine and really preferable because they do a good job with 95%+ of the functionality you probably want without word art and stuff like that. Sheets is more stripped down relative to Excel but absent pivot tables and the like, most people don't need that.
