Based on the results of the experts evaluation, in line with the above criteria (design, functional-technological and education-communication), among the presented digital tools for group work with educational content in distance learning, the Microsoft 365 tool proved to be the most effective (the overall evaluation of the experts is 2.64). Google Workspace is recognized as the tool with the highest degree of adaptability, as it can be accessed from all available devices and operating systems. The expert score was 2.73, with 2.27 for Microsoft 365 and 2.21 for Cisco Webex.

Cisco Webex is determined to be more effective for organizing group work in real time, because by the indicator of the ability to organize joint work in real time, it received a significantly higher score from experts, namely 2.95, while Microsoft 365 - 2.13 and Google Workspace - 2.04.

Conclusions

As a result of the pedagogical research, we substantiated the criteria and indicators that should be followed when selecting platforms for organizing group work with educational content in distance learning. The study of indicators using the method of expert assessment according to three criteria, nameXy: design, functional-technological, and educationcommunication, provides grounds for the following conclusions.

The most significant indicators according to the design criterion are: the possibility of joint filling and processing of various types of documents, the accessibility of services and the possibility of organizing a virtual workspace for group work of students using services.

While selecting cloud services for group work with educational content under the conditions of distance learning according to functional-technological criterion, it is necessary to take into account the following indicators, which according to experts are the most important ones: the possibility of creating and storing educational content for joint processing, the possibility of planning joint activities using services, the ability to evaluate the results of the group's work, the task (project), the availability of tools for visualizing content.

Based on the results of the study, the following indicators have the greatest weight according to the education-communication criterion: the possibility of organizing joint work in real time, the possibility of organizing video communication and the possibility of exchanging and demonstrating the results of group project work in real time.

According to the results of expert assessment, the Microsoft 365 platform has been identified as the most reasonable and effective for organizing group work with educational content among participants of the educational process. For organizing real-time group work based on the degree of manifestation of the identified criteria and corresponding indicators, the Cisco Webex platform has been determined to be effective for use in distance learning. Google Workspace allows access to educational content from all available devices and operating systems

The development of models for using the Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Cisco Webex platforms for organizing group work with various types of educational content in the process of training specialists in higher education institutions is a promising direction for further research. Conducting an analysis of other services and platforms for group work according to defined criteria and providing recommendations for their use is also a prospective trend.
