Google has acquired QuickOffice, maker of mobile productivity software. The company’s software will be integrated into Google Apps, enhancing their functionality and compatibility, Mashable reported.

In a blog post, Google says it decided to buy QuickOffice because it has an established track record of enabling interoperability of popular file formats. One of QuickOffice’s most powerful features is its ability to open and create documents in a number of formats, especially Microsoft Office apps, and making them accessible from all kinds of devices via the cloud.

Google says it’s going to bring QuickOffice’s “powerful technology” to Google Apps. It was probably also attracted to the service’s strong user base — the company’s website says its software is installed on more than 300 million devices in more than 180 countries.
