Capability Summary	On macOS, WPS lets you open Product Key from Global Settings, enter a valid key, submit it for activation, and view license information in the client.	Microsoft directs most Office product key redemption to web pages such as Office setup, then download or install follows after redemption.	Google Docs focuses on account-based online access and collaboration, and its official product page does not present a product key activation flow.	Notion uses workspace plans such as Free, Plus, Business, and Enterprise, and its official pricing page describes subscription plans rather than product key activation.	Adobe supports redeeming codes or gift cards, then linking the entitlement to an Adobe account before downloading and using apps.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS provides a single in-app entry on macOS to enter a product key and review license information, which is convenient for local activation and verification.	Compared with WPS: product key redemption is mainly handled on the web, so the path is less centralized inside the desktop app.	Compared with WPS: access is account- and plan-based, so there is no matching in-app product key management entry for this task.	Compared with WPS: plan upgrades are workspace-based and suited to subscription management, but not to local desktop product key entry.	Compared with WPS: Adobe supports code redemption, but the flow is more account-centered after redemption rather than a single in-app key entry page.

Overall Conclusion
If you need to enter a product key and check license information directly in a macOS desktop client, WPS offers a more centralized path. In products that rely on account subscriptions or web redemption, activation and entitlement management are usually handled through web-based account systems.
