The Verdict
Google Docs is built for teams and students, with a focus on real-time-editing and comments. Superlist targets wunderlist fans and small teams and leads with personal-lists and team-workspaces.
Pricing is close: Google Docs starts at $6/mo versus $9/mo for Superlist — not a deciding factor on its own.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Bottom line: Google Docs has a slight overall edge — but if lightning fast performance matters most to you, Superlist may still be the right call.
