Microsoft unfazed by 'lightweight' Apple's iWork software
CTV
Apple has recently released its new productivity suite, iWork. This is supposed to be the main competitor with Microsoft's Office suites. Microsoft simply shrugged this off by saying it was "lightweight" and "has never gotten traction". Microsoft's corporate vice president Frank Shaw defended Microsoft's tablet, the surface, by saying "Surface and Surface 2 both include Office, the world's most popular, most powerful productivity software for free and are priced below both the iPad 2 and iPad Air respectively,". Microsoft sets themselves apart by offering the highest rated, and highest quality, productivity software for free with their tablets.
I think that Microsoft has the far better product because you are able to have multiple screens running at once and it is free. Apple's productivity app, iWork, is offered, but at a price. Although Apple has released that they will now release their new upgrades with iWork for free it is still not the best because it is not as developed and does not offer a multiple screen ability.
