Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports email-based account registration from either the desktop client or the official website, then completes account creation after verification.	Microsoft accounts can be created with an email address and used across Microsoft products and services with one login.	Google Docs requires a Google Account, and official help explains that users sign in to access documents and related services.	Notion account settings support adding and verifying email addresses and managing password-related account settings.	Adobe supports creating an account with an email address and password through its account page.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS provides both an in-app registration path and a website registration path, so users can start from the desktop workspace or the web.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft emphasizes a unified account system across services, while the registration flow is described mainly through account pages.	Compared with WPS: Google documentation focuses more on using Docs after sign-in, and account creation is handled through the broader Google Account system.	Compared with WPS: Notion documentation focuses more on account settings and email management after sign-in than on a single desktop registration entry.	Compared with WPS: Adobe provides a standard web-based account creation flow, with less emphasis on starting registration from a desktop office app.
