Google workspace has a fraction of the functionality. At a base level they're relatively comparable. But once you go into more advanced functionality and security, 365 is a landslide better.

Office365 is slow and broken. I don't really know what your talking about

Claims without facts, got it. UI can be slow, sure. Mostly admin side. Outlook, excel, word, etc all work fine.

I can only speak from experience. It is probably subjective.

In terms of the basic office utilities like text editor, spreadsheets and so on, Google is a good contender. But Google Workspace isn't even close to the functionality IT admins have with Microsoft Defender, Intune, Entra, Purview, and so on.

There's a lot more going on at the administration side than just the user's experience, that could make it less ideal to move to Linux.

I'm saying this as someone who hates both Microsoft and Google.
