Overall Satisfaction with Quip

It is very useful since it integrates with Salesforce, so documents can be edited in Quip and kept updated simultaneously on Salesforce. Normally used for Word doc types. It helps to keep everything in sync. Quip also allows more than one user editing a document at the same time, so for project documentation that involves a team, it can also be used. Excel files can be imported and "converted" as Quip documents smoothly.
  • Teamwork
  • Project Management
  • Saleforce Integration
  • Trusted cloud provider
  • Not a real substitute for MS Office
  • Not many edit options for documents
  • It can do the work related to Excel and Word well, but not for PowerPoint.
  • Positive: File sharing made easier
  • Free
  • Negative: security (cloud-based)
Quip is free. Again, as mentioned earlier: it is a fantastic tool that does most of the job if you do not have the budget for an MS Office license. It does the job well for most professional documents in Word or Excel type docs. It is more easy and intuitive to use since it has fewer features.
Great option if you have no budget to acquire MS Office 365.

Good option for situations that require teamwork and several people editing the same document simultaneously.
Not a good option for sophisticated situations that call for documents prepared for external clients that need a more professional layout.Useful as a safe location to keep documents, but only for Word and Excel-like types.

Evaluating Quip and Competitors

N/A. It is free.
The evaluation would still be the same, although I was expecting the solution to have more functionalities by now. Quip is static. Nothing changed in the last 12 or 24 months. Normally these solutions are always being updated and getting better, like Evernote.
