Amazon WorkDocs vs Quip in our news:

2016. Salesforce buys collaborative word processing app Quip



Salesforce is acquiring Quip, the cloud-based word processing app for $750 million. Quip will continue to operate its business, but now under Salesforce. Quip, when it first launched as a mobile-only native app (it now has a desktop and web version), was described as a timely disruptor to the clumsy and very incumbent Microsoft Word. Salesforce could do enough just to offer this, as it is, as part of its wider portfolio of productivity services to tempt more customers to its platform, and away from Microsoft’s. But considering the price that it is paying, and the fact that the Quip team is joining as part of the deal, I suspect they could be aiming to do something even bigger.
