Amazon may be the butt of most jokes here but it is killing it and the stock shows, Netflix is fast expanding in the pandemic, Apple posted stellar Q2 results despite pandemic and is growing its subscription based business, Microsoft has moved in the right direction with Teams and Azure cloud platform. Where is Google? What was the last banging product they released? Stadia, the new Pixel, GCP, Google Meet? Will Google be dethroned as the poster child of innovation in the coming years? Edit: I guess ‘innovation’ is a very loose term. What I mean is make a new product which is successful in the market both in terms of user experience and profitability for the company. Should have used better terminology in hindsight
Apple has no innovation. Just brainwashed and idiotic fanboys. Google is also the leader in ML and AI.
Microsoft has limited innovation as well. Azure just copies GCP and AWS. Teams is following zoom and slack at best
How's Microsoft teams innovation? They stole that idea from Slack . Apple's innovation is upgrade HW in the same line of products? Latest innovation is killing headphone jack ? Amazon is not innovation they are the epitome of execution. Simplest of ideas executed well is Amazon. No Innovation after Alexa and Kindle, both of which are losing market. I felt Google buds and call screening is really innovative. Google glass was and Microsoft Holo lens is exceptional innovation and way ahead of time , so they will never fly. So it's not just innovation, it's also what makes sense business wise.
That’s not innovation. Innovation is not coming up with the craziest ideas that nobody uses nor economically viable. Execution and biz models are all part of successful innovation. In that sense, Amazon is a clear leader.
If you set the bar innovation to building teams and Azure cloud, anything we do is Innovation.
I am also frustrated as a GOOGL stock holder. Not sure if current CEO has a great vision.
He can't do much. Google is now MSFT, or like any mammoth corps . Larry Realized that and gave up for that reason.
Google has the most innovative products, sadly they dont succeed. Unlike Facebook or Microsoft, Google doesn't seem to copycat and call it innovation, which seems to be not working for them.
Every word. And if anyone remembers, Google Wave , that was way ahead of slack and was killed. Gtalk integration with Gmail was so well ahead of time, hangouts just killed Google's advantage in IM.
Let’s be real. Wave was cool but nowhere as functional as Slack. Gtalk was an IM client. Hangouts failed to straddle both the IM and mobile messaging roles and now Google is betting on RCS. What’s a joke. They should’ve invested more on Hangouts or just gone all in on Allo but nope. Too late to copy WhatsApp in 2020 with RCS.

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Similarly what was the last banging product that Facebook has released?
