Bangalore: Google, in its acquisition spree, buys another software firm Quickoffice, which allows the customers to create and edit the documents in their mobile device. Recently, the search giant has acquired social sharing firm Meebo to empower the mobile platform of its social network Google+

With the acquisition of Quickoffice, the Google’s App suite will be compatible with Microsoft’s familiar office document formats. Users of Android and iOS based Smartphones and tablets can easily create and edit word, excel and PowerPoint documents.

Alan Warren, Google’s engineering director wrote in the blog, "Today, consumers, businesses and schools use Google Apps to get stuff done from anywhere, with anyone and on any device. Quickoffice has a strong base of users and has an established track record of enabling seamless interoperability with popular file formats, and we'll be working on bringing their powerful technology to our Apps product suite."

Google’s fast acquisition aimed at the mobile platform came at the moment when rumors about Microsoft’s new Android and iOS office app were high.

Alan Masarek, Co-founder and CEO of Quickoffice said Google’s purchase would let his company further develop the product. "By combining the magic of Google's intuitive solutions with Quickoffice's powerful products, our shared vision for anytime, anywhere productivity can only grow,” he said.
