Yeah, Google says, its web-happy word processor will be so effective, most enterprises will be able to “get rid of [Microsoft] Office.”

Dave Girouard – president of Google’s enterprise division spoke to ZDNet Asia,  and admitted that Docs isn’t up to snuff at the moment, calling it “much less mature” than Google Mail or Calendar. He acknowledged it’s “not perfect” at handling third-party document formats, but insisted it “will get there.”

He even said that they will not ask anyone to change from microsoft office to Google docs now.

The company has “thirty to fifty” – yes, thirty to fifty – updates planned for its online processor in the coming year. Apparently, these include new features as well as performance enhancements.
