Accessibility: Microsoft 365 has a slight advantage
While the tools in the suite Google Workspace tools are 100% cloud-based, Microsoft 365 Google Workspace allows you to download desktop and mobile applications to access its services. Nevertheless, both solutions offer offline access: Google Workspace through a web extension for Docs, Sheets, and Slides, and Microsoft 365 directly from its applications.
Team communication: Microsoft 365 has the advantage
Microsoft Teams gives a clear advantage to Microsoft 365 for team communication. Indeed, while Google's communication component is scattered between Google Meet and Google Chat, Microsoft offers employees a platform that centralizes all exchanges (chat and video conferencing): Teams.
Real-time collaboration: Google Workspace has the advantage
While Microsoft 365 started out as an offline office suite, the DNA of Google Workspace is 100% cloud-based. Real-time online collaboration on the same file is thus smoother on Google tools, thanks in particular to shorter loading times.

The way your data is hosted has an impact on its security
The Cloud Act is a 2018 US federal law that allows the Department of Justice to order a US internet service provider (including any SaaS publisher) to access data stored on its servers, even on those located outside the US. A law to which Talkspirit, a French publisher, is obviously not subject.
Rationalizing the number of tools saves money and time
